Fitzhead, in the south of England, is a small, picturesque village. It is the home of some of my ancestors.

In 1997, my new wife and I honeymooned in Britain and spent a couple of days around there, making sure to attend Sunday services in the gorgeous church, St. James. We were warmly greeted and made (gladly, I might add) to visit the homes of two local families. The memories of our time in Fitzhead are among my fondest travel memories and stories. If you're genealogiically-inclined towards Fitzhead, you may find transcriptions of the St. James Parish Registers here.

I'm particularly interested in these folks, found in the marriages portion of the Parish register. Several of the Rockwells came to America on the Mary & John in 1630, while others arrived in 1635 on the Hopewell.
