Welcome to Tankersley Ties

Browse through our Ancestor List

Some families know a great deal about their roots and others know very little. This site is an attempt to record what I have learned about our family history. In these modern times, families tend to be scattered all over the country, if not the world. One of the goals of this site is to help our family stay connected even though we live far apart.

Thumb through the Family Album

I have been collecting from distant relatives and close ones, old pictures of family members and also headstones. Visit the family photo album or the Family virtual cemetery.

Family Historical Places

Check out the link page for family historical places, such as the History of Caroline County, Virginia, or the Story of the Scotch-Irish settlement... and many more.

I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to my research: Mis Evelyn Maples, Sula Tankersley Woolf, Belinda Hughes, C. Ray Tankersley, Bob Zidlicky, Sarah White, Clayton Whitlock, Terry Stephenson, Donny Hunter, Mary Lou McHaffie Ramsey, my parents' Family History briefcases, Peggy Yarborough and all of her wonderful research, and everyone that I may have failed to mention. There are many people who have helped with Census lookups and Headstone pics.

RSVP here.
