John Huddleston Wynne 1628, to Francis Bartlett Wynne
Posted by: Yvonne Pennestri (ID *****7383) Date: January 06, 2009 at 15:19:31
  of 1625

I have a copy of a family history document. The first Wynne mentioned is John Huddleston Wynne, son of a Welsh baronet, born in 1928 (Not Sir John Wynn of Gwydir). He grew up, a friend of young Prince Charles (Charles II). After CharlesI was beheaded, John Wynn was among those who went to France with the young Prince Charles. After Charles II was restored, John returned to England and held various positions at court. He served as Attorney General for a short time under James II. After James II was deposed, John came to America in 1689 at age 62 and a widower. He relinquished his land and titles in Wales to his oldest son. In America he met and married a wealthy Quakeress and raised a second family.

The problem is, I can't find anything about his parents or who the Quakeress was that he married. One of his sons (probably by the Quakeress) had son Francis Bartlett Wynn (Pennsylvania), who had son John Wynne (Georgia), who had sonAllen Byrd Wynne (Georgia), among others. I'm looking for any info from Wales, as well as the missing pieces from the time John came to America to the birth of Francis Bartlett. I'm missing a whole generation there. Thanks for any help.
