Hewlett Family


The earliest record of the ancestry of this family is given in a book by Rev. William King (Vicar of Astley 1947-1973), titled 'Bells and Pomegranates'. This book is a history of the village of Astley - (England). He writes at length about Rev. Alfred Hewlett, who was also a vicar of Astley (1831-1837 and 1840-1885). Alfred Hewlett was a son, of  William Hewlett (1776) - see Generation 3 below. (Alfred Hewlett was grandfather of Dean Hewlett-Johnston)

Rev. King states that the officer in charge of the soldiers at the execution of Charles I (30 January, 1649) was Captain William Hewlett, a direct ancestor of the Hewlett line that is the subject of this history.
