Last Update: October , 2001
The stories of the first six generations of the Dennis' family are brought
together from many different sources. Some of those sources have been put in
writing from times before Moses Dennis lived. It would be impossible to give
everyone credit for their hard labor. Over the years, all the Dennis family has
wanted there to be a record of their family. We are lucky to have so many family
members keep track of their family's histories. Some of the journal entries and
Civil War letters are entered in these writings without any changes to the
wording.
My family and I have put as many stories as we can find together for all to
enjoy. That is the only credit we will claim.
The Dennis'
Six Generation Brief Story
(gathered from many sources of prior family members)
It has been supposed that Thomas Dennis (abt. 1638 to 1706) had been
born about 1628 or 1630 to William and Jane Dennis of Portsmouth, N. H. We
have organized our generation story by starting with Thomas Dennis as the
first generation until we have more complete information.
First Generation Thomas Dennis
Second Genation Captain John Dennis
Third Generation Rev. John Dennis
