THE SEQUOIA TREE TO INCLUDE ALL MERRIAM LINES, INCLUDING FEMALE LINES
The Merriam family lives primarily in North America. The purpose of this website is to track all Merriam / Meriam descendants back to their 1638 ancestry roots in Concord, Massachusetts and make one giant family tree. Feel free to search for your relatives by entering their names or go to the place list, which will enable you to pull up every deceased person where that particular place is on record ***. Look for photos, find interesting stories and general Merriam information and check the section "What's New?"
*** For privacy reasons, you will not be able to connect places to living persons or see full details on living persons unless you receive special authorization or become a branch captain.
FOR IMMEDIATE ACCESS: Please click on Log In and enter the word guest as your user name and merriam as your password. As a guest, your search will be limited to the persons documented in the book, Merriam Genealogy in England and America, compiled by Charles Henry Pope in 1906. This is a work in progress and is not fully completed yet. To obtain full access to the large SEQUOIA tree (which also includes the Pope book), simply request a regular user log in.
You can contribute your own Merriam family tree by contacting us. You can immediately download reports directly to your home computer, using the universally accepted (and free), pdf file format.
