Welcome to my Web Site
Folliott 3
This web site is dedicated to the preservation of our family history. This started as a hobby to preserve information we had in the family. Over the years and thanks to the help from relatives and others around the world, our family tree now contains over 5,915 individuals, 1,800 marriages, 2053 families, 10 generations and 1,148 surnames. On my side of the family, information for my gg grandfather John McClelland dates back to 1818, while gg grandmother Margaret Blackburn dates back to the mid 1700's. On my mother's side, the Folliott and Boynton families date back to the early 1700's. All of my immediate families settled in Ontario initially.
This site is dedicated to my mother's side of the Folliott family. The information show here is primarily for the Folliott clan. If you want information on the McClelland family, please visit my main web site at www.mcclellandfamily.ca which has links to all branches of the family, including the Folliott's.
Navigating My Website
The web site is set up with a Family Backgrounds section that gives a brief history of the Folliott family. This is followed by a Family Details section for the respective families. All family information, including individuals, are found here.
Please note that I have published only the basic details for each family. I have not included specific notes on each individual, either for privacy reasons or for simplicity in maintaining the web site. However, I do have a lot of detailed information on family members. Please contact me directly for more information.
I have not shown my generation or the preceding generation if I am aware of living family members in that generation.
