Synopsis

This book presents a careful, readable look at the Devon Carys, tracing their roots from medieval times through the Tudor and Stuart eras. It uses first‑hand sources such as wills and genealogical papers to bring color and context to a family that stayed influential in Devon while spreading its branches far and wide.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the history of the Cary family, a prominent lineage in Devon, England, whose story unfolds against the backdrop of a dynamic and fascinating region. The author delves into the Cary family's roots, beginning with their presence in the manor of Kari, as recorded in the Domesday Book, the comprehensive survey of England commissioned by William the Conqueror in 1086. The book then follows the Carys through the centuries, their lineage intertwined with the changing power structures of England and its connections to other parts of the world, including Brittany, Ireland, and Virginia. We encounter the Carys as they navigated the complexities of the feudal system, their fortunes rising and falling with the tide of history. The book reveals the intricate connections between the Carys' personal history and the broader narrative of England, from the Norman Conquest to the Tudor and Stuart eras, illuminating the influence of social, political, and economic forces on a family's fortunes over time. The author weaves a tapestry of individual lives, their trials and triumphs, their loyalties and their struggles, against the rich and ever-shifting backdrop of English history, making the Cary family's story a captivating reflection of the dynamic and complex nature of the past.
