Pidgeons of Wem

These Pidgeon trees have been established solely from the parish records of Wem and other places in Shropshire.  As such, there are possible errors.   For, example, there were two cousins named Richard Pigion, born in 1624 and 1631.  It is not known which one married Elizabeth and produced the descendants shown in red, nor which died in 1691 and 1721.   Similarly, there are four possible Marys (indicated by **), one of which died in 1745.

Wem is 10 miles N of Sherwsbury.   Other places are situated, in relation to Wem, as follows:
  Astley
Broughton
High Ercall
 Hodnet
 Lee Brockhurst
Stoke on Tern
Uffington
