  •         THE MAIN BRANCH
    
    The Alford family that moved from New Kent Co., VA to North Carolina about 1740 is seen by many as the main branch of the family. It is so large and complex that it has been divided into smaller parts that overlap and are listed in echelon below.

    John Alford 1645 - 1710 ??. John is probably the father of the James Alford born about 1687 in Virginia and through whom most of the genealogy extends. The two main elements are Lodwick 1710 VA and Julius 1717 VA, but there are smaller lesser known limbs of this tree. Descendants of John covered the southeastern part of the country and spread across the gulf states. This branch of the family is managed by Gil Alford of Florissant, MO.
    

    AAFA has more members, with more descendants, associated with this Alford ancestor than with any other. Segments of the file, or limbs of this family tree, will be uploaded or updated and linked as available. This cascading list of main groups is in a modified outline format. The Roman numerals represent generations down from John Alford. Conventional modified register reports with much more detail are linked to the entries. The data overlaps a generation or two and because of updating by segment the register numbers from one segment may not match with register numbers in the adjoining segments.
    An asterisk "*" following a date means it is an estimate.
