Scatchard and Scatcherd Family Trees in North America

SCATCHARD Family Tree in North America

Return to Main Page


WE WELCOME OUR FIRST N. AMERICAN IMMIGRANTS SINCE 1907
MENA                CHAS                 HAILEY

Yes, it has finally happened. Our North American Scatchard family tree has had no new immigrants since Walter Scatchard showed up in British Columbia in 1907. But now, suddenly, we have 3 possible additions to the Tree assuming one, two, or all three of them remain in the country.

Mena, (b.2000) who came from Ripon, Yorkshire to run track and study on a schlorship at Princeton University, is already in her senior year and will probably opt for a permanent home in the not too distant future.

Charles V Scatchard (b.1952) is a retired, globetrotting, health care and info-tech executive who is currently living in Needham, Massachusetts. For more details, those on linkedin can find his impressive resume out there.

And finally we have Hailey Scatchard (b.1999), Charles' daughter, who is working in New England for MFS Investment after completing an honor-studded college education at George Washington Univ. in D.C. She also plays classical violin.

Attempts to reach all 3 of these folks have so far failed, so we will await developments before a new Tree Branch is created. (With anything additional, please email me at: scatch25@gmail.com.)


The five sons of Joseph Burdette circa 1870.

There were nine emigrants: Joe, Herbert, John, Thomas, Walter, Harry, Benjamin, Harriot and Margaret from the West Riding of Yorkshire, UK, who account for all Scatchards living in North America past and present. The five in red went on to produce Scatchard offspring. Click on the underlined text below to see each particular branch of the Tree.

          Six immigrants who produced no SCATCHARD offspring.

    All our relatives hailed from the parishes of Pontefract, Wakefield, Dewsbury or Tadcaster. They are all located in the West Riding, in the south-central part of the Yorkshire map.
