Our research has determined that the Trask families, located all over the world, are related to one another and origonally came from Thirsk, a region that was a Viking stronghold for many centuries in England.

The Trask family, thanks to the co-operative effort and all the wonderful gifts of information, has become too large and cumbersome to download onto the Internet and into your PCs - more than 20,000 individuals named Trask.
Recently, we have received several private bible records, numerous unpublished handwritten, manuscripts and boxes of personal Trask family memorabilia. The impact on "our" genealogy is immense. It will take us months, if not longer, to sort and compile all of this new and glorious Trask family information.
All of the affected families have been notified and appraised of the restructuring of their families.
Please e-mail us for additional information so that we can continue to help each other and put "our" Trask family back together.

NOTICE
You may, freely, "cut and paste" our information into your word processor for personal use only.
You may extract specifically associated data into a non-commercial webpage if you link it to ours.
We would have serious objections with anyone attempting to sell any part of "our" passion for a profit.
All the bound books, formal papers, manuscripts and photocopied materials were submitted to us in "Good Faith".
We will diligently defend the contents of "The Trask Web Pages" from any exploitation for personal gain.

We have an additional 150 mb of Trask family information on hand.
Our Trask Library has well over three hundred donated items, i.e., books, periodicals and CDs.
