McGreevey family of New Jersey
Note: This is just one of 643 family
groupings listed on The
Political Graveyard web site. These families each have three or
more politician members, all linked together by blood, marriage or
adoption.
Some families traditionally (and perhaps properly) considered
separately are joined together here if linked by marriage or
otherwise. These groupings — even the names of the
groupings, and the state or lists of states of main activity —
are the result of a computer algorithm, not the choices of any
historian or genealogist.
