Thank you for the link you provided. I can only vouch for the accuracy of the generations from that of Sir William (1520 to 1596) and before as those are the ones connected with my research, which is academic in nature (the Mallorys in the context of medieval English gentry and the disentangling of the life histories of Sir Thomas Malory of Newbold Revel, knight, and Thomas Malory of Papworth St. Agnes, esquire) rather than strictly genealogical. However, the accuracy shown does inspire confidence in the information provided. Although I don't know its direct antecedents, it builds on the work of S.V. Mallory Smith and shows the influence of Paul Reed, a professional genealogist based in Salt Lake City whose work I view with utmost respect.
I wish I could comment intelligently on the Mallorys in Bermuda, but I can't. Considering, though, that there is a genetic divide between northern and southern Mallorys in the United States (and, I would suppose, in England, too), I intend to carry my research forward in England a further two or three generations, so that I can get a better understanding of what happened. I wish there were more Mallory participants worldwide in the Mallory DNA project, as available DNA data is, unfortunately, not yet adequate to do any more than just point out the directions in which further paper-based research should be done. I can only hope my research in the Mallorys as an element of medieval English history will eventually be a help in putting the DNA data into proper perspective and vice-versa.
As I can connect the Papworth St. Agnes Mallorys solidly with the Kirkby Mallory family and feel a somewhat more detailed history of these individuals than has been previously available is worth sharing, I will, however, continue to post more information about them on the Mallory forum.
Again, I am sorry that the Bermuda period is currently outside my research field. I will keep it in mind, though, because it could provide another potentially interesting historical topic I could do an academic study of several years down the line.
