The
POTTS SURNAME WEBSITE
Here you will find:
-
Information on the POTTS surname and it's variations.
- A searchable relational database containing over 28,000 POTTS surnamed individuals (plus their 13,850 spouses) who lived in the 16th to early 20th centuries throughout the world. Boolean (logical) searching is now incorporated with up to eight search criteria being allowed.
- Information on over thirty publications and other printed sources of POTTS genealogical data, some of which are downloadable from this site.
I have located a copy of the supplement to Thos. Maxwell Potts' Historical Collections Relating to the Potts Family in Great Britain and America, and have added information about it's content in the Potts References section of this web site. May 9, 2009 - I now have the entire book, have examined it, and have started comparing it to the information in the database and making corrections/additions where necessary. This will take quite a while!
- A list of some sources of POTTS information available on the Internet.
- A listing of all the inquirers/researchers (almost 1,000), and their email addresses (if known), who have contacted me for help, indexed by the Potts individual or surname line they are working on.
- A Guest Book that you can sign if you choose, that is shared with site visitors. Tell visitors who or what family you are researching.
- A Feedback Form to provide me with information regarding any difficulties you encountered on the site or, perhaps a brief summary of your success.
and, in the future:
- A list of Potts cemeteries in the United States. (Don't look for this soon. For now you will have to search the various available web sites.)
- Information on the Potts Family arms and crest. (Currently available only via a link on this site.)
