"The Presley Family Tree that has been selling as Elvis memorabilia is inaccurate. Be advised that David Pressley is NOT Elvis' ancestor.
The accurate tree stems back from Andrew Pressley, Sr. to Andrew Pressley, Jr., to
John Pressley, to Dunning Pressley, Sr., to
Dunning Pressley, Jr., to:

Rosella Elizabeth Pressley, to Jesse D. McDowell Pressley, to Vernon Pressley who changed the spelling of "Pressley" to "Presley" after Elvis' birth." (Seems they did a lot of adding or taking out letters in names didn't they?)


Excerpted from Elvis World News | Feb., 2008. Original notice from Rachel Harden of Roots of Elvis:

"Cousin of Elvis Passes
Aunt Annie Cloyd Presley of Tupelo MS passed away last Thursday. She was a friend of Gladys Smith Presley and was interviewed over the years by numerous authors of Elvis books. Annie is remembered by those who visited her, saying "Ya'll are so good to come visit." She was known as Annie Virginia Cloyd and was the only person that married into both Rosella Presley's line and also Rosalinda (Mary Jane) Presley's line. She first married Sales Presley (Rosella's line) and then, years later, married Sales cousin, John Delton Presley (Rosalinda's line). She was a delight to know and she will be missed. Annie was the one person who cleared up the age-old myth that Gladys walked Elvis to school even during his high school years. Annie said that this was absolutely untrue."

This site is pretty interesting for history/geneology seekers on the Presley's!
