The Shackleton/Shackelton Family Tree
This family tree is put together from the information found in the book The Shackletons by Bernice Close Shackelton and also from the Shackleton Newsletters, along with any information that I have received. Please email me with any additions and/or corrections so that we can keep the tree current for all our family members who are also searching for information.
With keeping with the same format as The Shackletons, each page will talk about the main person, who they married and then their children. Please email me any stories and/or personal information that you would like to be shared with other family members.
Please include the name of the person you are emailing me about along with their date of birth (if possible) or their spouse. Pictures are always a welcome addition for the family picture page too!!
