    History and Pedigree of the Family of Marrian, formerly Depré, of Shropshire and Staffordshire HISTORY AND PEDIGREE OF THE FAMILY OF MARRIAN, FORMERLY DEPRÉ OF SHROPSHIRE AND STAFFORDSHIRE Page 1 History and Pedigree of the Family of Marrian, formerly Depré, of Shropshire and Staffordshire CONTENTS PAGE Introduction The Ironworking Revolution in the Tudor Era Marian Deprey and the Change of Name The Midlands Farming at Bobbington The Great Industrial Towns The Family Today Sources of Information References - in numerical order INTRODUCTION Page 2 History and Pedigree of the Family of Marrian, formerly Depré, of Shropshire and Staffordshire This is, we believe, the first attempt at setting down a comprehensive Pedigree of our family for the whole period of its English life, together with an account of our history, in so far as we know it. The first member of the family to become actively interested in working out the genealogy appears to have been GEORGE BARNES MARRIAN (XIII. 38), who, before and during the first World War, interviewed many of the family then alive, and established the main framework of the Birmingham and London branches for the past five generations. Subsequently, earlier records of the family have come to light, in the shape of Wills, Parish Register entries and other documents, the more important of which are now reproduced to support the Pedigree. For ease of reference, each generation is given a Roman numeral, and each individual an Arabic numeral, in his, or her, particular generation. As, no doubt, with most genealogies, we have a number of references in the earlier generations which cannot at present be accurately placed.
