The pedigree of FRANCIS and WILLIAM
WEBSTER comes from the work of Amy Leigh VanCott and Allen Wilford Leigh in the book
Generations of Websters, which was published privately in 1960 by the Thomas Webster Family Organization in Cedar City, Utah. Their book is invaluable for anyone interested in the WEBSTERS especially during the years 1856-1960 in Utah. Based partly on family papers
and the journal of FRANCIS WEBSTER (1830 - 1906), the book also includes study of parish registers by clerks and clergy in England. Amy VanCott continued her research on the WEBSTERS and spouse families, and until her death after August 1986 she added new data to her family group sheets, which are used here. As another great-granddaughter of FRANCIS WEBSTER through his daughter AMY WEBSTER LEIGH, I have built on this first work.
With so much already done, my effort was to confirm the earlier pedigrees, add to them if possible, identify relevant microfilms and microfiche at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, and make the results available on this website for other genealogists. We hope that any errors will be promptly reported, and that all the problems and puzzles here left open will be taken up with enthusiasm by others.
In order to differentiate between individuals, persons having the same name
are numbered, and the numbers are given in parentheses to avoid their
appearing to be middle initials.
