Henry's Roots in England

Information, and text copy, received frm cousin Ann Buckley, Rochester NY, Dec. 24th, 1995.

"During one of those terrible convulsions of religious persecution and fervor which swept over the British Isles, from "John O'Groat's, To the Lands End".

At frequent intervals during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, one John TEWKSBURY gave up his life for religion's sake and was burned at the stake in the market-place of his native town, Tewkesbury, England. His ancestors had given their name to the town and his descendants were among the earlier settlers of New England."

This is a quote from " History of Susquehanna County Pennsylvania", a centennial book. by: Rhamanthias M. Stock. reprinted 1974 Baltimore Regional Pub. Co. This may explain the emmigration to America of John's children Henry and, probably, Thomas. Also there is a footnote to this article that states:

Quote, "Charles II of England granted to Admiral TEWKSBURY a township of land in the Colony of Massachuesetts for individual loyalty and efficiency as an officer. Subsequently two sons of Admiral TEWKSBURY settled on this grant of land, and from these two descendants came the family here." unquote.
