In "The Family Face," Michael Leete speculates that the immediate English ancestor to Isaac Leet was Gregory Leete (1627-1672) of Badby.
I've just started to explore the English church records recently made available through Ancestry.com. I found this record.
Name: | Margret Leete |
Marriage Date: | Feb 1639 |
Parish: | St Mary, Newington |
County: | Surrey |
Borough: | Southwark |
Spouse: | George Benor |
Record Type: | Marriage |
Register Type: | Parish Register |
Could this be a connection? I didn't have time to research Gregory of Badby.
BUT... for those Daniel Leet fans out there, was the house Newington named after the place or road Newington in England? (There is a Newington Road just a few miles from Badby village.)
