Listed below is the male Ives family line from William to Sumner Albert covered in this genealogy experiment. The family of each wife is listed next, followed by the family of the wife’s mother. The date and colony where the family arrived in America is in parenthesis. All families came from England except the Dunbar family who were Scots. These families from England were also all English in origin except the Yale and Day families who were from Wales. I will next cover Wililam Ives and his wife in detail before providing background on his orgins in England and the early New Haven environment. Then I will address each of Ives listed below.
