Ancestors of John Cary 

The information in this section is controversial.  There is much conflicting data about John's ancestry, roots and relationship to Miles Cary, Thomas Cary, Richard Cary, and William Cary- all of which came to America around the same time.  Most seem to have settled in the Virginia area, except John, who settled in the MA
area.  Some could be brothers or first cousins.
