In which the Fitzhugh story, dating back to 13th Century England, is illustrated from those humble beginnings to William "The Immigrant", his Virginia progeny, and beyond.
I'm a decent of the Randolph's, Lee's, Tucker's, Corbin's, Hancock's, Fitzhugh's, Carter's, Evan's, Gatewood's, and Boling's. Among others. Many of my lines go either to Colonial Virginia, North Carolina primarily but Maryland, and Massachusetts as well. My father is Monacan Indian through his mother. Obviously, Hancock's through his father. My Mother is from OBX. Her family is much harder to trace for some reason. A rare pre-colonial line on my maternal side leaves NC in the 1700s and goes back to Plymouth colony. I'm excited to uncover what history I can from her remaining ancestors. Thank you for putting this in a timeline with some context. Love the VFF series!!
I find it fascinating how interconnected many of these lines truly are, not just in VA but elsewhere. Thanks for sharing! Glad you're enjoying the series. It's been very rewarding to research them in a deeper fashion, though at times, very difficult to boil all of that research down into digestible episodes 😀

It's interesting to know that all cultures have held slaves at one point or another.
