The family is collecting and creating histories on the descendants of Jared Pratt. While a number of these histories have circulated in the different branches of the family, the goal is to gather all of them and put them on the family web page, where all family members can access them free of charge. Each grandchild of Jared Pratt will have their own part of the web page to store photographs, histories, and related documents.

We are gathering histories through the third generation. This means Jared, Charity, the five brothers, their wives, and all their children and their spouses. We want to include every extant journal, letter, and autobiography, as well as all histories penned by a descendant, whether short or long.

If you can help or know of any of these histories, please contact us.

The Jared Pratt Family Association has been gathering high-resolution photos of all family members through the third generation. We now have over 350 photos of family members, including William, Parley, Orson, Nelson, and many of their wives, children, and children's spouses.

View the pictures

These photos are also now available on CD for all family members at low-cost.

Details on ordering the collection

If you know of additional photos, please contact Ben Parkinson.

In a continuing effort to identify descendants of Jared and Charity Pratt, the family organization would appreciate your help! If you have information and records that you have not previously submitted, we would encourage you to share this information with the Jared Pratt Family Association.

Paul Debry, Vice President for Descendancy Research, is heading up this effort. For more information about how to submit your information, see Paul's article in the family newsletter.
