Derry Family Tree with links to biographies and pictures

Many of the names in the table below are links to biographies and pictures!

Many thanks to Linda Hedlund for her generosity in providing the information on the Derrys from the late 1800s back to Joseph Derry in 1759; to Sue Lote of Staffordshire, England for information on Derrys before 1759; to Gayle Hensley for information on Thomas Dick and Jane McCoy; to Zane Jacobs for information on John Ballard, Hannah Clarke, Alexander Ballard, and David Clarke; and to Charles W. Ballard, Dottie Cole, Helen Bumgardner and Zane Jacobs for the Ballard genealogical information. Each location of the word [source] in brackets indicates a link to the outside web pages from which I obtained the information in that region of the table. I hope that I have not introduced too many errors.
