There are a number of useful published references for Potts surname
researchers. The usefulness varies since the intentions of the authors and
compilers were varied. Some of the references are specific to a particular
Potts line, i.e., a particular Potts individual and all of his descendants.
At least one other reference is generic – it examines all Potts (and variations
thereof) lines. A third category of references is one in which a
particular Potts family is included along with several other family lines.
The following is not an exhaustive listing.
