While I am very proud of my accomplishment since May 2004 in developing the Taggett Family Tree it would not have been possible without the initial research by Marjorie McGregor Correia and Lesley Harrison.

The branches that have been added with the help of very generous people who have shared their ged files and other documents including: Fred Hancock, Ray Long, Paul Dixon, Bert and Betty Brown, Bob Adlington, Sarah Evans, Nick Hollingworth, and Marilyn McQuilty Tagget and Darryl H. White, Steven Geoffrey Garrard and Roy Burnell.

There have also been others who have contributed out of the kindness of their hearts and enjoyment in seeing a beginner such as myself make headway. In particular: Sue Davey, Paul Jones, Tania Dennis, the very talented researcher... Robyn Arkinstall, and a new comer to the field of Genealogy... Cheryle Flower.
