Dexter Family Genealogy Website

Welcome to our new  Dexter Family genealogy website.  This site is about the Dexter family that came out of Staines, Middlesex, England and prior to that (from what we have learned) Nottinghamshire.

 Beyond that is the wall we work through.  We will also work with associated families that tie in to this direct line, so that even if you aren’t one of “my” directs, you have a direct association which matters and should be included.  

Your Input Makes This Site Valuable To All

Take the time to add to, edit and upload your own family data to make this a fully collaborative effort.

From time to time, I’ll request input and will make changes based on that.  

Add commentary and more as we go along. and I will protect the website and each of you from being hacked or otherwise having issues with the website.  That said, it is difficult in the world environment to offer perfect protections.  Know that I do my best, but if you see something odd, notify me to find and fix any issue.

The Old MyFamily Website

Because much of what we have here came from the efforts of all involved with the Dexter International Website (a MyFamily.com product, which was closed by that organization) I add this disclaimer:

Ancestry.com, the parent company to MyFamily.com, completely closed ALL of their MyFamily websites in order to make room for other products and services on their servers.  

It is believed that ALL anecdotal information with the exceptions of the photographs and very few bits I was able to harvest, are gone permanently.  The only things that were permitted to be downloaded away from the original sites were photographs.

WITH THAT IN MIND, please be aware that I acknowledge that there are photos and documents that are not “mine”; and I had no part in their creation.  They are part of this database as soon as I can upload them here, I will do so.  

SHOULD YOU run across a photo or document that you prepared, researched or in any way created, let me know at once so I can give you or the artist proper credit.  It is in no way my design nor interest to take property that isn’t mine and as such if I can’t remember who submitted an item, I will say so. Do claim that which is yours. I apologize for the inconvenience, unfortunately, there was no way to prevent this, as far as I am aware.

Thank you for your understanding. I will  monitor and  provide you a website we can all be proud to view, support and promote, and to include those of our kith and kin as may be interested in it.

Let me know if you have any issues whatsoever – you can email me directly at

Love to all,
