Few Genealogy
Welcome to the Few Family Tree.
The Few Family are thought to have originated in Wiltshire, UK. and this tree starts with a Few (whose first name is unknown) born about 1550 in Bishops Canning, Wiltshire, UK. The family later divides into two distinct sections - those who remained in the UK (mostly in Wiltshire), and those who 'left home' and settled in America. This latter group started with William Few 1599, whose son Richard, a Quaker, purchased 500 acres of land from William Penn in what was to become Pennsylvania. He sailed to the 'new world' in William Penn's ship in 1681/2. From there the Few's spread to many of the American States, with one being a signatory of the American constitution. Currently my Family Tree contains over 11,000 individuals - too many for a single web site. Therefore the main surname groups in the tree have each been given their own web site.
