Hi everyone!
I am currently working on my family’s ancestry tree and was able to find some details about my 11th Great Grandfather - the last man of my lineage to die in the UK before his son set sail to America.
John Austen Waterbury - Death was approximately September 1596 and I have found a record that says he was buried at St Peter’s Church in Sudbury Suffolk England. Same place that his son William Waterbury was born before he died heading to America with his own son, (also named John Waterbury), in 1630 that became the first Waterbury in America.
Is there anybody who lives in that area that would be willing to help me out? I just want a picture of his grave stone if there is one or a picture of the area that bodies were confirmed to be buried at the church if no headstones exist.
Also… and I know this is a very long shot… but if you live in the area there and are somehow connected to or still have the Surname of Waterbury - I would really love to connect with you!
Thank you for any help that you can provide! If anyone has any information or ways to get more details on my ancestor’s from there, please let me know. I am very invested! Thanks.
