Well they are the crowd that lead me to my Haywoods in Barwell :)  They are mostly from Dudley and Worcestershire - Staffordshire way.

The only thing to concern me, Xin, is that Francis Pitt appears to only be 14 when son Oliver born!!

Well the little 'tinker'  :)

Like I said I have to verify and go over it alllll again just to check.  Most of it is from IGI and family search.   So  should be right, but who knows.... :)  I made an appointment with Dr. Who  :)  a little journey with him and it will all be sorted.

Well done! To get back to the 16th century is an amazing achievement.

The furthest back I have got is to around 1680 with one line among my English ancestors, to my 9th great grandfather and my 10th on a different but connected English line. In Scotland I have got back to 1758 in Fife. As one might expect, the best I've been able to achieve with my Irish ancestry is a pitiful 1839  :(

With my German (Pomeranian) ancestors I have thus far only got back to the 1850s!

I wish I could get further back with my Staffs rellies; I'm stuck around 1800 or so with more than one line  :(

On the other hand I can get back to 1550 in Grantham with Robert Fraunces (only my 11gt grandfather though, they didn't pack in the generations as much as your lot Xin!) and I'm happy with the facts there because I've gone through the PRs myself.

In Notts I can get back to Thomas Suger who was my 13 gt-grandfather; I know nothing about him except for the birth of some of his children 1573-1589. I found the will of one of his sons so again I'm happy with the relationships. My only qualm is that I haven't got definite correlation a couple of generations later on. Maybe one day ---
