The Root(e) family
The Root(e) family is listed as one of the early settlers in "A Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England, before 1692". We often receive enquiries, especially from America about the family.
There are no monuments, gravestones nor descendants of the family that we can identify in Badby village today. The 17th century parish records record births, baptisms, marriages and burials of a few members of the family. The records are now housed at the Northamptonshire Records Office.[11]
Below are the results of research by former resident Cristine Orr. Thomas Roote married in Milton Malsor. This Thomas had a field and house in Badby in 1597, but gave it up in 1606. His son John was born in Milton Malsor probably in 1570. Badby registers show:
27 July 1600 - John Roote married Ann Rushall at Badby. The Rushall name also appears as Russall and later as Russell in different entries
21 December 1600 - Marie, daughter of John & Ann Roote was baptized (Most records indicate her name was Mary, but the actual parish records are very illegible).
18 October 1603 - Susanna, daughter of John & Ann Roote was baptised
16 January 1605 - Thomas, son of John & Ann Roote was baptised. Thomas went to U.S.A. in 1637
26 February 1608 - John, son of John & Ann Roote. John also went to U.S.A. in 1637.
5 April 1609 - Thomas Roote was buried on 5 April 1609 in Badby.
NOTE: Arthur Louis Finnell, CGRS, of the National Huguenot Society states this about Thomas and Ann Routes (Roote)'s son: "JOHN b. 1575; m 1600 Badby, England to Mary Russell. Listed in 1598 as an alien in London." To be a bonafide Huguenot, a person must have left France after 10 Dec 1520 and before 28 Nov 1787, suggesting Thomas Routtes was born in France, likely in 1555, and fled to Badby to escape Catholic persecution.
NOTE2: The above Huguenot origins are in question. It is now being considered that Thomas was a son of Lawrence Roote of Milton Malsor and evidence to this is currently being researched.
