   Note: The Ancient Brocket Family (updated 4 Nov 2001 with acknowledgement to contributions from Adrian Brockett) Extensive research was done to ensure that there are no other possible John son of John Brocket’s. In fact, research was taken back 300 years to Thomas Brocket who born about 1363, builder of the original Brocket Hall in Yorkshire and married to Dionice Sampson. From him down, the various Brocket lines have been traced where possible to the mid -1600’s, past the point where the immigrant John Brocket left for America. Thomas and Dionice Brocket of Brocket Hall had a two sons, Thomas, of Brocket Hall who married Elizabeth Ashe and Edward who married Elizabeth Thwaytes. Dame Elizabeth, as she was known, wife of Thomas, was heir to the manor of Symonds Hide at Bishops Hatfield which became the Brocket Hall in Hertfordshire. They had no children. The rights to the manor passed to his brother Edward and continued in the family through his descendants until it came to Sir John Brocket who married Helen, daughter of Sir Robert Lytton of Knebworth Place. Edward Brocket and Elizabeth had several children. John Brocket, Esquire and Sheriff of Hertfordshire was their eldest son. He married Lucy Pulter by whom they had children, John, Edward Lucy, Elizabeth and Allice. Their son Edward married Margaret Mikleford. This Edward resided at Letchworth, Hertfordshire. From Edward and Margaret were the Brocket descendants at Codicot, Hertfordshire and the ‘Rector” of Graveley parish who during the Civil War, 1642-51, was one of large numbers of the clergy ejected from their livings. Edmund Brocket, “had been a priest for over 50 years was ejected in 1643/4 as scandalous in life and unsound doctrine.” From William, the youngest son of Edward Brocket and Elizabeth (Thwaytes) probably descends the “cadet line” the Brocket’s of Campton and Dunton, Bedfordshire and Guilden Morden, Cambridgeshire. John Brocket, Esquire, son of John and Lucy was born about 1490. He was Sheriff of Hertfordshire and Essex. He married Dorothy Hughson, From them the Brocket’s of Wheathampstead and Brocket Hall descend. John and Dorothy Brocket had several sons and daughters: Sir John Brocket, knighted by Queen Elizabeth Luce Brocket, married to Thomas HOO Nicholas Brocket of Wheathampstead, a great land owner married Margaret HOO Robert Brocket, married Margaret Farrow and Margaret Gilbert Edward Brocket, Willingalle, Essex and by his wife Elizabeth Barley came the Brocket of Willingalle. Also daughters Jane and Alice Brocket
