DESCRIPTIONA BRIEF ACCOUNT, OF THE SKIPWITHS OF NEWBOLD. METHERINGHAM, AND PRESTWOULD, COMPILED BY FULWAR SKIPWITH, Late Bengal Civil Service.Having prepared this little Pamphlet for my own amusement, I print it, as I think others of my family will read with pleasure what has furnished occupation for so many of my leisure hours, and will share with me the interest of tracing the family history through so many centuries. I have found no data to lead me to suppose that any other branches of the family are still in existence, but I cannot positively affirm that there are none. The SKIPWORTUS in Lincolnshire use the arms and crest of the SKIPWITHS, but how they obtained them I do not know; there is no connection between the families. I am under great obligations to MR. CHANCELLOR MASSINGBERD of Ormesby, and the REV. FELIX LAURENT, of Saleby, in Lincolnshire, for the aid they have given me in my researches, especially to the latter, who has supplied me with much valuable information, and I take this opportunity of expressing my thanks to them and also to all others who have assisted me in my enquiries. Other names mentioned are Estoutville, Thorpe, Moore, Dymock, Hall, Cave and others. |
