Some very useful web site links:

Wren Sites

bullet

Sir Christopher Wren's Family : Ancestors and descendants of Sir Christopher.  According to this site there are no living direct descendants of Sir Christopher Wren.

bullet

Wren Genealogy : Site dedicated to Wren family histories.

bullet

Descendants of Abram Wren : Indented list of many descendants of Abram Wren.  It doesn't say on the site but I believe that the Abram mentioned here is from the Keswick area of Cumberland (now Cumbria) in England.  I've not yet managed to link to this family but the chances are that my line of Wrens is linked to this line, being in the same area at the same time.
