Through the paper trail one of our eagle eyed members noticed a parallel between the two trees and after researching it we have come to understand that John Babb, son of Richard & Sarah (Seaman) Babb is in fact the progenitor of Devon Pedigree 08.

Devon Pedigree 05 is also known as the Gryphon’s of Halberton, Devon. So, with this merger they join an established DNA proven lineage.

This also reduces our count of trees in Devon and Cornwall that still need to be merged/tested down to 41. It’s still a heady task, but progress is measured in millimeters here.

I’ll be making these updates before proceeding with print publication so it will be included.
