Migration of Our CHENEY / HOPKINS / HOLT / BROWN / RASEY / etc. Kin
Westward from New England in the 18th thru 20th Centuries
Below is my attempt at extracting the census records of our New England kin and their migration westward. Locations are listed roughly east to west, not alphabetically; and records are color-coded as given in the Legend below. Some non-kin are included to aid in eliminating them from consideration.
Lines known to be related are highlighted with the same color.
