• Notes

  The English ancestry of this Wolcott line goes back to John Woolcott-I of Tolland, Somersetshire. His will there was dated 9 Feb 1571, proved 11 April 1572, and mentioned the children John-II (b. 1582, bap 20 Dec 1584), Alice, and Mary, his wife Agnes, and brothers Henry and Roger Woolcott. The will of John Wolcot-II, yeoman of Tolland dated 10 Nov 1623 mentions several children, among them his two eldest sons Christopher and Henry. Henry was the progenitor of the New England Wolcott line. CG p447 [2]
