DEVON @ SIR ROGER

4/28/2024

In the last newsletter I wrote that Sir Roger of Devon's location had not been found. Olive Moger documented a John Newbrugh's existence in 1499 in an area adjacent to Exeter called All Hallows. Is it possible that Sir Roger was following his uncle or father into Devon? The history surrounding that area is interesting.

I am working on getting the Devon Archives to send more information about him. Onward!

I am a medieval historian who has been studying the Newburgh family of Dorset for 20+ years.

It all began when I realized the genealogy for this family was cracked! Joseph Gardner Bartlett wrote the first bone fide history in 1914. Through the errors of omission much of his work is provably inaccurate.

I was suffering with the empty nest syndrome, living in a rainy place with no sun, so I set myself up and started doing research. Here I am many years later with two books about the Newburghs under my belt and so much more information that needs an archive.
