Joe, it’s true. Thank you. What a great resource you’ve created! I would love to find more information about John Nicholas Proctor in Middlesex, London. Seems that period’s a bit sketchy because of everything that was going on with the Dissolution of the Monasteries, Act of Supremacy, etc.

Hi Lisa, yes I think Joe Proctor’s done an extraordinary job with the House of Proctor geneaology website. It certainly gives you a different perspective on history to think my ancestors were with the group of pioneers who accompanied Daniel Boone through the Cumberland Gap and then on to Missouri.

Bonjour Jacques! We’re distant cousins then… I can’t remember exactly where I found it. But I’ll search around a bit and let you know.

Hello Les,

I just stumbled on the House of Proctor site and we are related ;>. Our family could always trace ourselves back to Little Page Proctor, who fought in the Revolutionary War, but we could never dig farther back than that. I only wish my mom and dad were alive…they would have really enjoyed knowing that we could be traced to Jamestown and beyond. It is also nice to know we aren’t decended from horse thieves, as my dad would say jokingly.

Best regards,

Lisa Proctor Sereno

Mr. Proctor,

I am also a descendant of John Proctor, though our name is now spelled differently, and I have no idea why. I would like to get copies of the picture of the Sea Venture, the same that you have on your story. Can you tell me where I can them?

According to documents at the museum in Jamestown, Virgina, {Copies of which I had given to me by my mother Vida Proctor Morgan, who visited that museum in the late 1970s} John Proctor, our ancestor actually came on the Seaventure with servants in 1607, not 1609, to establish a plantation near Jamestown. His wife, Alis came from Middlesex, England with a son and daughter, furniture, supplies, and servants in 1621The shipping list of what she brought is also at the museum.

I loved the movie and the line delivered by Steve McQueen!
