Mead Family Ancestry
MEADFAMILY ANCESTRYbyJim German1 MEAD Family Ancestry Jim German, Mead Ancestry can be found in the days of the Norman Conquest of the 11th century. However, at that time the Mead name was not used as we know it today. It was more a descriptive word, coming from the Norman word, de Prato, meaning of the meadow, which described where a person lived, the flat lands or a meadow. Over the centuries the word became more associated as a proper name, than as a descriptive name. It wasn t until about 800 to 900 years ago that proper (last) names as we know them became common usage.
11TH GREAT GRANDPARENTS Our earliest Mead ancestors traced with certainty are Richard Mead and Martha Gouldhurst, of Watford, Hertfordshire, England. Richard was born about the year 1515, during the reign of King Henry
