This is the home-page for ACalvert.com. Originally the website was only intended to host the family tree to allow relatives to view progress. However, after many years of research it has expanded beyond a basic tree. Although the tree includes people up to the present day, details have been obfuscated for those still living.
A searchable tree is viewable using the "Search" on the top banner, or the whole pedigree can be viewed using "Pedigree Chart". If you want to know the details of the latest updates to the web-site the "Progress" will give the highlights of the latest upload. Every member on the entire tree is related to each other with the sources of all the facts viewable on each person's notes page or via the "Sources" on the top banner.
The main focus of the tree is on WARKUPs (with various spellings) and CALVERTS. Investigation revealed that the top of the WARKUP line (John b 1679) came from the small Yorkshire coastal town of Flamborough. As a result Flamborough became the main focus initially to determine how many of the occupants were in fact related to each other. There is a specific page dedicated to that research :
It shows all the births/marriages/deaths from all the parish records. It also has links to maps of the churchyard(s) and all the identified monumental inscriptions that have been identified on the tree.
As part of the investigations into Flamborough we also discovered a number of WARCUPs buried in other churchyards. Below is a list of churches that were visited and whether we found WARCUP monumental inscriptions :
Over the time the tree has been researched, a large number of certificates have been ordered from the General Register Office. Although (due to copyright reasons) we cannot include the original image, the transcribed certificates are available. :
We discovered the source of the East Yorkshire WARKUPS in Flamborough and you can see how the migrated round the county using the links below. Attention turned to where they all went and how the name spread around the county. There is a North Yorkshire branch (also related and on the tree). We have recently begun work on the the WARKUP families that emmigrated to the US/Canada so maps will also appear for those branches. Migration of WARKUPs :
