Dragoo Family Ancestry Tree

The Dragoo Family Ancestry Tree includes nearly 28,000 individuals representing generations of Dragoo families and related lines, with new individuals and genealogical information added regularly.

Access to the tree is a benefit of DFA membership. If you are a DFA member and have not received an invitation, please contact the Library Director.

Welcome

The Dragoo Family Association is an unincorporated nonprofit family association dedicated to preserving and sharing Dragoo family history, encouraging genealogical research, and strengthening connections throughout the extended Dragoo family.

Our family history includes the Dragoo surname and its historical spelling variations, including Draggoo, Dragaud, Drageau, and Drago. These variations reflect branches of the same extended family.

The first Dragaud generation to settle in America was Pierre Dragaud II and Elizabeth Tavaud. They married on November 12, 1699, at the Lord Mayor’s Chapel in Bristol, England, and came to America soon afterward. It is probable that all Dragoos in America after 1701 descend from Pierre and Elizabeth. Pierre descended from French Huguenots who fled to England during the 1680s.

Through family histories, genealogical research, documents, photographs, stories, and reunions, DFA members work together to preserve our shared heritage and strengthen connections among the generations.

Interested in discovering more about Pierre and Elizabeth, exploring your own Dragoo ancestry, or connecting with your extended family? We invite you to join the DFA.
