Decendants of HIGTON-1


    This HIGTON Pedigree was sent by Lady Elizabeth Park, (The Relator) of Retford. It was hand-drawn on a large roll of brown paper, and the webmaster transcribed it into line-inset format for inclusion with the other pedigrees on this website. On the other side of the brown paper is a GOULD pedigree, which connects up with this HIGTON pedigree where shown.
