Significant family lines in Northamptonhire were, in all probability, descended from the Earls of Warwick. The permutation used to identify their line appears to be NEWBURY/NEWBERY. Thomas Newbury was Vicar of Brixworth Church in 1477. This church is very old demonstrating several eras of construction.
Wollaston is featured prominently in the holding of the Newburgh family in the early centuries. British History Online has an excellent explanation of Wollaston and how it related to the Newburgh family beginning with Robert who died 1185.
It is known for certain that a family line in New Jersey was descended from the family in Northamptonshire.
Over the past five or six years, several of my colleagues have developed pedigrees for ancestors based in other parts of the eastern seaboard. Jim Newbery partnered with this project in ongoing research into the New Jersey Newbery families and others.
Jim has successfully followed his line back to Northamptonshire from New Jersey, after having found a reference in an 17th century letter identifying an ecclesiastical leader in Tiffield, Northants. It is small clues like this that often open up an entirely new world for research.
