UK Family Names

This is a list of all the UK families that the Closes have married into ... so far. This doesn't include children, just spouses. Some appear more often than others, but usually separated by a few generations ... although there are times when it looks as though two entire families married each other! Different colours represent different generations so a mix is fine. However, if you come across a whole batch of the same colour ... be afraid, be very afraid...

Besides family names such as Joseph and James, these often crop up as Christian names ... for example, Joseph Longstaff Close or Bernard Tennant Close. From this point-of-view they can often be a useful tell-tale sign that a particular surname is hanging around somewhere up the tree.
Use the drop-down button for the family, or the main person button for details on that person. Alternatively you may want to dig around a bit more with our site search.
