About the website
This website is provided by Ian Gotts of St Albans. I have registered the name in the UK's Guild of One Name Studies, and have many records. Any reference numbers attached to names belong to my index of 3500 Gottses who are connected to trees.

Any other information is only included when I have confirmed that this is acceptable from the person who provided it.
I have family trees and birth, marriage, death information which include living people, and I am willing to share these with people who give me their credentials. Please contact me directly for further information.
