This manuscript is the source of information for many genealogies. While it may conain errors, compared with what is known today, it also refers to many official records. For that reason, it may be valuable to some researchers. The time and place involved is Maryland in the 1600's and 1700's.
The manuscript contains more than 60 pages. I have focused on the earliest generations as well as the those portions that contain abstracts of official records. It is not posible to include the entire manuscript. However there is a link to the the Guy Meek genealogy which is based on the information in the manuscript. I will include as much as I can based on time and web space.
Note: This material was scanned from poor quality copies. I tried not to change the spelling. However, the scanner created many errors that needed to be fixed and the word processor corrected many errors on it's own. But, this is a reasonably accurate representation of the material that Joseph Meek distributed in 1967.
