The Eacott History

This is a history of the Eacott and Eycott and related version names with details about lives of some individuals bearing these surnames including something about the time in which they lived. It begins before the earliest known Eycote and continues until modern times. Anyone interested in genealogy both specific and generally as well as those interested in details of the lives of individuals who lived in the past 1000 years will find this book of interest.



Only families with an unusual name or of great historic nature can be followed from ancient times. The Eacott name is the distinguishing mark of a family that left some interesting records of themselves albeit in small bits.



I have undertaken to search out information about the lives of the Eacott clan for more than 40 years and educate myself about the times in which they lived.There are vignettes of social history to be shared with anyone curious about the real lives of ordinary people from the past.
