Wow, it is funny that you asked this question. I watched a show on PBS last night on the Jews and Henry Ford was profiled on there as being an anti semite-definitely not flattering for Mr. Ford. It went into how he was thanked personally in Hitler's manifesto and how he ran full page anti semitic ads for about 100 days in the Dearborn Independent. It was really a fascinating show. From what I saw, it is ironic that he built a hospital for his employees in Detroit and established the Ford Foundation for the purpose of "advancing human welfare."

Here is a link on William C. Ford... His relationship to Henry Ford is clearly outlined.

Anyway, to answer your question, someone has attempted to research this tree.

I have not verified it for accuracy so I am making this disclaimer now. Here is the link.

It doesn't look like there is much detail outside of names and dates, but doing genealogy, you know that half the fun of researching is the hunt!! I know, I know, you wanted a completely sourced genealogy complete with primary sources. I'm sorry to disappont ya!!

Here are a few links on Henry Ford:

Very fascinating subject... I might be inclined to do more research if I wasn't chasing ghosts of my own. Blessings to you!
