My Family Descent from John the Ancestor
I am directly descended from John Cundict, the first Condit in America, through the following (Condit ID number following name):John1 Cundict
Peter2 Cundict
Samuel3 Condit (1)
Captain Jonathan4 Condit (16)
Jeptha5 Condit (164)
Silas Whitehead6 Condit (1648)
John Henry7 Condit (1648 3)
John Winford8 Condit (1648 34)
Sheldon Everett9 Condit (1648 343)
Me ( David Everett10 Condit 1648 3431)
My Son (Charles David11 Condit 1648 3431 2)
At this point my line is ended as there are no more Condit descendants.
A view of where my ancestors lived as they treked across the United States to where I was born vividly shows the expansion of our country from the view of one family and is duplicated by many families in our country. The trek from Newark, New Jersey to San Francisco, California spanned 265 years and nine generations and included many stops inbetween. As I have studied the path of my ancestors it has been a facinating study and I hope you will enjoy it also. The family started in Newark, New Jersey and my branch moved as shown in the following timeline.
