TOWNLEY FAMILY TREE

TOWNLEY - a name born on the battlefield and baptized in the blood of a thousand French Knights

The links below go to pages that tell about our Townley family heritage.
The preface gives some understanding about life in a feudal system and how the first "Townley" surname came into being. 
It will help you understand and follow the family pages better and make them easier to understand. 
Then in each chapter; I'll briefly cover some of our ancestors so you can understand what a great lineage we have and some of the great Kings and leaders we come from.
If you run across a word or phrase you don't understand; feel free to check the glossary.  I saw many things that confused me; so, I assume they might confuse the reader also; thus I added the glossary pages to help make things clearer.
I'd advise starting with the Preface just to get your feet wet and have a 'general' understanding.
