We are mainly concerned with researching the Willingale family name, and have traced our earliest ancestors back to Great Dunmow & Bocking, Essex, UK in the 1500's. We believe all Willingales are related. Our main family tree, as of May 2008, contains 3066 individuals, of which 845 are Willingales.  We have a further 1052 people, including 400 Willingales on our 'Loose' tree, where we have not, yet, been able to trace a link back to someone on our main tree.

We also research all aspects of the Willingale name and history, including 'our' village in Essex, which is unique in that it has two Churches in the same Churchyard. We also have an interest in Lopping rights and Epping Forest, through Thomas Willingale, who was instrumental in saving the forest from development in the 1860s.

The Willingale Family Society was formed in 2002 to formalise our research and to bring our extended family closer together. The majority of our research, including our full family tree, is available via this website, to all our members. To join the society please see our WFS pages.
