Ludlow Family

The purpose of this project is to clean up the Ludlow family tree, starting with the family of William de Ludelowe.

Main Sources

• ludlowfamilytree.org
• The Visitation of Gloucestershire 1623
• The Visitation of Wiltshire 1623
• The Visitation of Shropshire 1623

Naming Conventions

• Main principle: name as close to original as possible.
• Maiden Name as family name where known to disambiguate multiple partners
• Place names in suffix to disambiguate different branches of the family
• If "Sir" is desired, please place in parentheses in middle name field.
• "Lord" should only be used if there is a specific honour (Lord of ____), in which case this should be placed in the suffix
• If names of French origin contain "de" please place this in the last name field (e.g., de Audley)
• Alternate spellings of the surname as found in historical sources may be placed in the Maiden Name field (available for men by temporarily switching gender, while in Edit Profile mode)
