Description
Excerpt from The Jessup Family: Containing a History of the Jessup Family in England and America, With Particular Reference to That Branch of the Family That Settled in North Carolina and Spread Over the Central and Western States
The earliest traditions of the family whose American pedigree is about to be given, are so closely associated with Yorkshire as the probable home of its emigrant ancestor, that some mention of what is known about the early history of the best known Yorkshire family of the name, will not be found out of place 1n these pages, especially as some of its members were actively in sympathy with the Pilgrim Fathers of New England, whose English home was also in the vicinity of Sheffield. Nothing of the kind is known to have existed in the case of any other family of the name.
The pedigree of this family is given in the Herald''s Visita~ tion of Yorkshire (1665 published by the Surtees Society. The more essential portions of this pedigree are given below, with additions from Col. Joseph L. Chester''s transcript from the Parish Registers of Worksop, and from Yorkshire wills. Hunter''s Founders of New Plymouth, the History of by the same author, and other authentic sources furnish additional material.
