My name is Jim Allen Wansley. Currently, I’m one of several members of the James Hamilton Wansley branch of the John and Mildred Wansley family tree that are launching and providing information for the Wansleyfamily.org website.

Ours is only one branch of a much, much larger family tree that began initially from a humble and fairly clearly defined beginning in the 1700s in colonial Virginia and spread to many other areas of the growing United States throughout the ensuing years. Unlike more common names, and due in part to the fortunate existence of certain records in colonial Virginia for John and Mildred Wansley, we are able to define our Wansley family tree origin and development to a greater extent than many others.
