The current banner shows Alnwick Castle, in Northumberland - a county in the far north east of England, bordering Scotland.  This region is home to a number of Appleby lines - and our DNA project has confirmed genetic connections between several of these, which also match lines in Canada, USA and Ireland.

PLEASE NOTE: if you are viewing this site on an Apple device running IOS 13, you may experience problems with page layout, over-lapping text, etc.  Hopefully, Apple will resolve these issues very soon,

Robert Appleby, coalminer of

County Durham

This line begins with Robert Appleby, born about 1819 in Sunderland, County Durham.  Robert was the illegitimate son of Jane Appleby, though we have no further information about her.  Robert was a coalminer and worked in the mines of Houghton-le-Spring, Sherburn, Willington, Cornsay and possibly others, so the line is aptly titled 'of County Durham'. All of his descendants seem to have stayed in County Durham and one family moved to Newcastle Upon Tyne.

 

DNA

Unfortunately, as this line is descended from an illegitimate son of a female Appleby, it is not open to DNA testing.  However, if you have any further information about this line, please get in touch via this link.
