Molyneux Family Tree - Personal As stated on the General History page, our lineage has been traced back to Vivian de Molyneux from England around 1066. The list of names are only the direct descendents to our family. I am adding additional family members and personal data as I can. Each direct descendent is in bold and underlined. All data here has been pulled by Susan Molyneux from the book "History ...Genealogical and Biographical ...of the ... Molyneux Families" by Nellie Zada Rice Molyneux © 1904. Susan Molyneux pulled specific data for more current generations from various sources (primarily the Mormon Genealogy Library and Ancestry.com). Besides the Molyneux tree, she is also working on other related family trees: Speers, Cloud, Gross, Bird and Beshaler. I am learning from my mother where to look and what to look for. Hopefully, I can do as thorough a job as she has. It isn't hard though, because once you start, it is hard to stop. Just as you find one line it leads to another and another.
