The family tree lettering system distinguishes between the various sections of the BURGUM (or BURGHAM) family trees. (It was created many years ago when I first began my research). The various family trees are designated "AA", "BB", "DD", etc. There is no "CC" family tree, for example, because it was found to connect to the larger "FF" family tree. My ambition would be to merge all the family trees, ending up with just one very large family tree!
AA FAMILY TREE The AA family tree originated from Flaxley and Littledean, in the Forest of Dean, later moving to Bristol and Bolton (Lancashire). Later the family moved to East London (West Ham), before spreading around England. One section of the AA family tree lives in Brazil.
BB FAMILY TREE The BB family tree are mainly from Birmingham, spreading principally to various parts of London (especially Islington and Fulham) and also to Christchurch, near Bournemouth.
DD FAMILY TREE The DD family tree originated in Liverpool, where many of the family still live. Some moved to Wales, while others now live in London, the South of England and elsewhere.
EE FAMILY TREE The EE family tree are from the Manchester area, in England. Possibly from the Forest of Dean before that.
FF FAMILY TREE The early generations of the FF family tree all lived in the Aston Ingham and Linton area, just north of the Forest of Dean. FF family members live mostly in the United States of America, while others still live in the Forest of Dean and elsewhere. This family tree is divided into sections.
