If you are a descendent of the HOUSE OF USHER what follows will be of interest to you. Even if you are not a descendant of the HOUSE what appears hereafter might be of interest to you. At this point in time (29/01/2000) I have included an abbreviated family tree which includes only the most notable and famous personages our family has produced over the centuries. I have done this because it would take a great deal of time and more research to include all the brothers and sisters of each generation and their subsequent families. The number of descendants would then run into thousands! I have extensive records of the family and what appears on this website is only a small portion of what the website will eventually include. I intend to make it more comprehensive from my own records and hopefully from the information I get from the various Usher families and the connections of the Usher family from all over the world. I envisage I shall be entering additional data to the site as the information becomes available.
Please contact me with any information you have of your Usher antecedents and any notable achievements of theirs, year of departure from Scotland, dates of birth and death, place of burial and so on.
I wish you good reading and hope you find the history, skeletal so far on the website, on the Usher family over the centuries interesting. It was a very small family in Scotland five or six hundred years ago. It slowly grew into a larger family that achieved mighty things for Scotland and Britain. All Ushers should feel immensely proud of their family and also those of you connected with our family.
