Before My Time is about the ancestry and extended family of my four grandparents: John Samuel Krentz (Indiana/North Dakota), Margreta Tjode Hedwig (Gertie) Buss (North Dakota), Rosmer Pettis Kerr (Pennsylvania/Michigan), and Evelyn Elvina Hauer (Michigan). Archives, Labels (tags), and other links appear at the bottom of the page.
The Howe surname comes to me via Rosmer Pettis Kerr's eighth great-grandmother:
Elizabeth Howe, who married William Sedgwick on 10 April 1604 in Woburn, Bedfordshire, England. She's thought to have been born about 1583, and died after 1638. Elizabeth and William were my tenth great-grandparents.
I know little else about Elizabeth. Reader, if you've researched this line and can provide any further information, I'd be most happy to hear from you.

Lots of Elizabeth Howe's in my file but none far enough back to be yours.
I haven't done any English research at all, Apple. But... one of these days... ;-)
