Born in Dayton, Ohio, Connie grew up on the same street as her husband David. After going separate ways after high school, they reunited in 2000 and married in 2001. Recently celebrating 20 years of marriage, Connie plans to make the next 20 even better and would love for all her family to join in the fun here on the Dexter (and related families) website.
Since the website and blog are just getting started, categorizing where things need to go is a priority. Photos will have a gallery and detailed information can be submitted to go with each one. I will also try with my best effort to link the photos to the related family and individuals to which they belong.
So, where did they come from? What is it that drove these people from one land and sent them out to explore others? What is going on with the brick walls we seem to encounter and what suggestions can you make to help break through them?
We’ll start with the most recent decendents and work our way back to the oldest forefathers.
We’ll start with Edward Harvey Dexter Junior, my dad’s father. <Click here> to be taken to his page and to see his family
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
