This is a single page setting out agreement at a Court Baron before Edward Hasell, Gentleman Deputy Steward, for a piece of land in the Manor of Fleed Hall with Walthams Hall in Little Stonham. The reference to 'Kenton' is that the former Copyhold tenant is a John Ringe of Kenton. Browsing briefly the document I did not see the name Fenn noted.

Of these, the 1776 document names William Kirby "Gentleman Steward", and it is for a piece of land in the manor of Kenton with Suddon Hall. Browsing briefly this short document I did not see the name Fenn, and have not therefore searched it any further

Janes Surname from a transcription of Boyds Marriage Register by E L Fenn Suffolk RO.

Janes's pedigree is conjectural, a template for further research, as pedigrees from Stephen Bray put Janes death unmarried at 1714 Kenton SFK.

General Notes:
The connection of John Liveing to Robert Liveing and his family is unproven, John was identified as head of a Liveing Family Tree produced by Edward Henry Torlesse Liveing in the early Twentieth Century. It was suggested John may have been from Hadleigh, Polstead, Saffron Walding or Eling?

Edward Henry T Liveing searched the Registers of St Nicholas Harwich c1920 at the Church which at that time went back to 1535.

General Notes:
Suffolk Hearth Tax 1674 Edward Holton 3

Edward Holton was baptised at Nayland, 14 May 1671, son of Edward and Mary Holton. I suspect that there were other siblings, perhaps Constance, but little recorded in Nayland Parish Registers. He did have a sister, Mary Aylward, mentioned in his Will. His parents Edward Holton and Mary Ward (both of Nayland) were married at Edwardstone, so perhaps there is a possibility that some children might have been baptised there. This is something I must follow up.
Will look out some more details for you when I get a bit more time.

192. John JULIUS of St Kitts West Indies [691] was born about 1640 and died about 1671 in New York USA aged about 31.

General Notes:
This family is loosely traced back, but not proven to John Julius, of Nth Yarmouth, who, in the 17th C, was a sugar planter on the Island of St Kitts, (St Christopher) West Indies until the French took his estate c1665. His son Capt William Julius RN was honoured with burial in Westminster Abbey for his success in capturing French naval "Prizes". A second son John was the Capt of a Privateer "The Fancie" and lost his life in action against the French in 1697.
John's grandson William leaves a clearly verifiable presence on the Island from the early 18thC, his descendants worked the land with their slaves, becoming wealthy and influential. The family kept strong links with England where many from St Kitts lived in the 18thC, but they also spread out across the world, particlularly to Australia. The last of the family on St Kitts, Sarah Ann Julius, died unmarried in Basseterre in 1907, some 250 years after their settlement.
The pages that follow contain a minutiae, plus stories of duels, highwaymen, inventions, entrepreneurship and service to their fellow man.

St Christopher or St Kitts as it became early in the 18thC was first recorded by the Spanish but what name it was initially given is far from clear, as it appears as St Martin on some maps late into the 16thC. Increasingly the Spanish lost their grip on the region and in 1623/24 Sir Thomas Warner settled what was the first British Colony in the West Indies.
However about the same time the French landed to settle, this was resolved initially by a treaty in 1627 dividing the island. The British took the central portion, and the French the two extremities calling it St Christophe with "Basseterre" their capital. The original English capital was "Old Road Town".
Tobacco was the first crop from St Kitts until Jean Auburt of Rouen introduced the cultivation of sugar in 1640.
Ref: Out of the Crowded Vagueness by Brian Dyde and The Sugar Trade by Hugh Thomas

John Julius's dates and details are unproven, it is significant that there is no mention of a Julius in the Caribbeana records for the 17th & early 18thC. This was a very turbulent period for the Leeward Islands, France gained control of St Kitts three times; between 1665 & 1667; between 1689 & 1697; and between 1705 & 1713 when after the Treaty of Utrecht, Britain finally took control of the whole Island. However the re-allocation of land and other changes moved at a glacial pace, the islands continued to be invaded from time to time reflecting conflicts in Europe and North America.
If John Julius in fact died in New York in 1671 he may not have restablished himself as a planter in St Kitts, and was working as a sea captain out of Nevis, most of the basic supplies for the Islands came from Nth America until the War of Independance 1775-1783. At that time the French Navy supporting the Yankee's plundered in the West Indies, and trade with America ceased.

1668 ? Petition of John Julius, of North Yarmouth, planter, to the King and Council. Petitioner was for divers years an inhabitant of St. Christopher's, until the French surprised the island and took his whole estate ; but understanding that said island is again surrendered to the English, prays leave to transport himself, his wife and family, and 150L in goods, from London to Middleburgh, where a passage offers for said island. 1 p. [Col. Papers, Vol. XXIII., No. 107.]
From: 'America and West Indies: December 1668', Calendar of State Papers Colonial, America and West Indies, Volume 5: 1661-1668 (1880), pp. 629-642. URL:http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=76530&strquery=Julius

An extract from the Record Office at Felton Lane records the following petition was presented to the King
"John Julius of North Yarmouth a planter,
Petitioner to the King and Council 1668.
Petitioner for divers years an inhabitant of St Kitts until the French took his whole estate, but not withstanding, that said Island is again surrended to the English. Prays leave to transport himself, wife and family, and L150 in goods from London to Middlesborough where a passage offers for said Island".
Ref:Transcription c1960's by Nancy Hadwen nee Fenn.

Julius Jottings No. 6 Jan 1902.
One of our readers writes as follows:
"In 1883, I chanced to be in the Record Office in Fetter Lane, and I quite accidentally came upon this notice, that in 1668 one John Julius was paid a sum of money by the King (or the then government) to bring himself and his family from St Kitts to the North Yarmouth, which presumably was his home in England. At this distance of time, I cannot remember for certain, if the money was given to this John Julius to go to St Kitts with or to return, but I wrote down the date and name and have it before me now in my diary of 1883"
In the light of the above, this appears to have been a mistaken memory of the petition.

Sir George Julius's and Nancy Hadwen's transcriptions all had the date at 1668, but the book "A Power in the Land" puts the date at 1688, the collator has not seen the MS only the transcription above.

However the date of 1668 has been taken as correct as it is the date agreed for the return of St Christopher to English rule in the Treaty of Breda which brought the Second Dutch War to an end. The French were allies of the Dutch in this conflict.
Ref: Page 63 "Out of a Crowded Vagueness" by Brian Dyde (2005)

John is thought to have had two marriages, of a first, nothing is known. Little is known of John. His family remain entirely unproven, linked only by the reference to a family in 1668, and the Capt John Julius above whose will in 1671 mentions a widow but she is not named.

The Government Archivist for St Kitts Victoria O'Flaherty advises:
"We do not currently have records for the early 19th century. Civil registration started in 1859 so we have to rely on church records for the years prior to that. Making connections with the planter Julius family and the descendants of enslaved people who carried the name is not easy. The possibility of a genealogical connection is very likely but it will not be to all those who carry the name. Some would have gotten the name by virtue of having been owned by the family. The difficulties arise because
1. Although there were registers of the enslaved for the period 1817 to 1834 most of them were registered without a surname.
2. Not all enslaved or even freed persons joined churches. which means that they only records of them would have been plantation records.
3. No plantation records survived in St. Kitts. Those that survived are the records and correspondence that were taken/sent to England. I suspect that this is due to a number of reasons. Plantations changed managers often and they might have taken records with them when contracts ended. St. Kitts is prone to hurricane damage so many records may have been lost when buildings were damaged. Being tropical St. Kitts has many pests that attack wood and paper and many people probably chose not to provide them with food and destroyed records when they were no longer needed.
4. Children were often known by the name of the father but if there was not a formal marriage, the father was rarely listed in the record of birth or baptism even if the couple lived together. This means that the child would have been registered by the mother's last name. If this is not known, then it becomes very difficult to trace the family back."

From the early 17thC the Administration of the individual Islands had been in the hands of locally appointed Councils from the Planter population, they, over the years tended to a parochial view while preserving their own rights and privileges. As the white population fell, particularly in the 19thC, the quality of this leadership further eroded. After England secured control over all the islands in the late 17thC it did not appoint a centralised Colonial Administration but for the most part took a laissez-faire approach, leaving the Island Councils in place overseen, often with mixed results by a Governor General of the Leeward Islands, appointed from London.
As a result there was little evidence of a vision of nationhood in the decisions over the years, and infrastructure and Civic amenities remained primitive.

The following account was presented to their Lordships in 1675, having been drawn up and signed by the principal inhabitants and planters of St. Christopher's.
St Xp'hs land. Aprill 29th 1675. Narrative of the first settlement of St Xp'rs. How was ye Island of St Xp'hs first Inhabted by ye English & by the french, & how it was shared betweene both nations?

During most of the 18thC sugar prices were good and with slave labour yielded high profits, this allowed for the payment of attorneys and managers to run the properties while many plantation owners stayed in Great Britain or removed there.
However as more sugar producers worldwide entered the market in the 19thC prices fell as did Leeward Island plantation profits. Because of a high level of absentee ownership, plantations were unable or slow to adapt to alternative crops, or meet the market with more efficiency. This resulted in great impoverishment of the population.

Then came the Emancipation Act of 1834 and in its aftermath land prices fell with an aggregation of Estates, strikes became commonplace, as did the emigration of freed slaves creating labour shortages. The enormous compensation paid to slave owners by the British Government had a very uneven effect on relieving these difficulties.
Ref: Out of the Crowded Vagueness by Brian Dyde 2005.

It appears fair to say that the Julius family enjoyed the profits from their estates in the 18th, many removing to England where they established themselves and lived comfortably. Those that remained on St Kitts would no doubt have suffered from the fluctuations in fortune of the sugar industry, and the great social changes in the early 19thC.

Let us hope that the vein of goodness and respect for their fellow man, which modern generations of Julius descendants have displayed to this day, was present in Julius slave owners.

Little remains in the record of their participation in the society with a few exceptions, the most prominent being the Hon John Julius 1768 - 1815, who to his credit when Council President was forthright in seeking the prosecution of the Rev William Davis for the murder of a female slave. Although, unsurprisingly found not guilty by a jury of his peers, the publicity this trial generated in England no doubt fuelled the arguments of the Abolitionists.

It is sobering that the last member of the family on St Kitts, Sarah Ann Julius 1837 - 1907, died in genteel but dire poverty in Cunningham Hospital, Basseterre, where she had lived for over 20 years. What comforts she enjoyed at the end of her life were supplied by family in England, her letters in this record made most interesting reading.
Sugar production in St Kitts continued until 2005.

Primary sources for this Family History include Julius Jottings, Florence Stevens, who early in the 20th C., gathered data, particularly from St Kitts. Florence passed her research on to Sir George Julius in the 1930's, he continued the work and produced an extensive series of 8 drop charts and notes dated 31st March 1939. These set out much of what was known of the genealogy of the family to that date. Awdrey Francis and Jenifer Mary Julius, son and grandaughter of Sir George, and Valmai Maria Julius, daughter Stanley Villiers Julius have continued the research, producing much of the genealogical and historic data in this record from 1939. In 1995 the collator of this Tree, Edward L Fenn, started to draw together the various collections of the family's history, including that held by the Fenn's, and his own research, into this digital record. The project is ongoing. Images of family members have come from the above, and a wide variety of other sources.

By the courtesy of Alick Julius of NZ (no relation to this family) a file of research by Audrey Fysh and her husband John, of 37 Lime Tree Grove Croydon SRY, came to the hands of Edward Fenn. Done in the 1980's, it is not at all clear why the Fysh's were interested in the Julius family of St Kitts. They corresponded with Betty McGrath late of 35 Mill Drive Nth Rocks Sydney, who wrote an extensive work on the Brabyn family in Australia. The file contains valuable transcriptions and data on the Julius family, from the Society of Genealogists London, and other sources. This added to the history and enabled corroboration of data recorded in the 19thC and early 20thC.

Caribbeana is a vast resource for information on St Kitts and Nevis.

In a review of it in 2015, lists of 17thC marriages contained no Julius name (Vol 1) nor do lists of inhabitants of St Kitts, 11 Jan 1707/08, or Nevis, 13 Mar 1707/08 (Vol 3) or Montserrat 1730 (Vol 4).

Further publications used as sources for this record include:
"Genealogy : West Indies" by Genealogist Florence Stevens (nee Julius).
One note of interest in Florence's booklet, is that many of the St Kitts dates in the Julius Tree came from Mr John Bromley. Florence writes "For the correctness of the dates that we have, we are indebted to Mr John Bromley who visited St Kitts in 1912 and made copies from most of the Registers. His wife was a daughter of T H Berkeley of St Kitts and Antigua, and most of the families there were known to them. Unfortunately Fires have destroyed some of the older Registers"

"Julius Jottings" a private publication of seven issues, published in London by family members between January 1900 and January 1902.

Florence Stevens could find no reference to John Julius in the Parish Registers of the old Church Great Yarmouth, Gertrude and Anthony Elworthy also searched unsuccessfully for John Julius in "all the records available in Norwich and Great Yarmouth". It is possible that North Yarmouth was a settlement in St Kitts, although no evidence exists for this. The only North Yarmouth shown on a world wide Google search in 2005 is an old maritime town in Maine USA which has been settled by Europeans since 1640, no Julius is mentioned in Maine before the 1850's on the IGI - 09/2005

However the following references to North Yarmouth are from various 18C newspapers, it appears to have been a locality to the North of Gt Yarmouth Norfolk:

This statement from an earlier researcher into the family is unproven:
"Then came war and most of the English settlers were expelled, c 1664, but by 1713 the whole of the Island with Nevis to the south had passed by conquest, and treaty, back into the hands of the English and many planters had returned, including John Julius, who returned to Nevis."

The Colony of St Kitts was settled both by the British and French in the early 17th Cent. it was first divided into Quarters, or Divisions, which appear to have been Military Districts. Later six parishes were formed viz. Trinity, Palmeto Point, St.Thomas Middle Is. and St Anne's Sandy Point, on the Leeward side; and St. Johns Cabbesterre, Christ Church Nicola Town and St.Mary Cayon on the Windward side.

After the war in 1727 three further parishes were added out of the French districts; St Pauls Cabbesterre, St Peter Basseterre, and St George Basseterre.

The Parish of St.Thomas Middle Island was the oldest one, and here are to be found the estates such as Wingfield Manor and Godwin's Manor, taken by the earliest settlers, such as Sir Thomas Warner and Captain Samuel Jeafferson, both of whom are buried in the churchyard. Old Road Town, the ancient capital, remained as such till 1728 when the Seat of Government was transferred to the more commodious and salubrious town of Basseterre. This country lies in the Caribbean Sea, south-east of Puerto Rico, and consists of two volcanic islands - St. Christopher and Nevis.

Extracts from a letter from Florence Stevens to George Alfred Julius
Oberlynch Farnham Oct 16 1934
Dear Cousin George
I was delighted to get your letter last week, and your parcel this (sic). What an excellent tree you have made and the different colours make it far easier to follow. . . . .
I have been much puzzled by our origin; we were told as children that our ancestors came over from Hungary at the persecution of John Huss
but I never came across anything to prove it. DeVere Julius about a year before he died found some Julius portraits at Hampton Court and I went to look at them but came to the conclusion that Julius was the christian name, had they been ancestors they must have come to England with Queen Anne. I read up a good bit about this possibility but I don't believe in it; had de Vere lived (he was a most delightful man) he would have looked it up. . . . .

The Moravian Church
The Moravian Church is also known as the Protestant Church of the 'United Brethren'. It has its first Memorial Day in 1457 after John Huss, A Bohemian Reformer, was burned at the stake in 1415, and his ashes thrown into the Rhine. His followers then broke into different factions, but 10 years later were brought together as one church. This church appointed ministers of their own election and lot, receiving Episcopal ordination from the Austrian Waldenses. The church grew and soon embraced most of Bohemia and Moravia and spread further into Poland embracing three Provinces each with its own Bishop and Synod. Thus the Moravians were a reformed church some 60 years before the reformation in England.
By 1627, after much persecution, The Moravian Church had almost become extinct. In 1722 a settlement was set up in Herrnhut in Upper Lusatia (a Protestant Country) and refugees of this religion came here to join together. The followers of this religion formed themselves into a distinct religious society, but one that was still within the Protestant National Church, and took their place among the Reformed Churches.
The first Moravian Church in Great Britain was in Fetter Lane in London, 1742. In 1749 they were recognised as a Protestant Episcopal Church, securing privileges in both this country and the colonies.

John Hill writes in 2008: I would like to have gone back to the 'origins' of the Julius family, from my research they may have come from Denmark there is a possible link via arms and crests of the Juel family of Denmark. A memorial on the north wall of the south isle of St Mary's church (the University Church) Oxford, dated 26 Sep 1607, has a Latin inscription recording the death of a noble Dane Ove Juel (Owen Julius). From the translation it appears Julius had been 5 months in England and was aged 23. The Arms over the inscription are: "parted per fess wavee azure and argent, in base two barrs wavee of the first, in cheif a mullet of six points or" The crest is "two mens armes holding between them a mullet of six points or" About the coat is written "pie juste ac sobrie unum necessarium"

JULIUS. The Latin Julius, lulius, is app.
from lulus, the name of the son of ^Eneas
[peril. Gr. fouXos, ' down,' ' first growth of
the beard']
lulius, a magno demissum nomen lulo.
-JEneid, I. 288.

JULIUS
Gender: Masculine
Usage: Ancient Roman, English, German
Pronounced: JOO-lee- (English), YOO-lee-uws (German)
From a Roman family name which was possibly derived from Greek ?(ioulos) "downy-bearded". Alternatively, it could be related to the name of the Roman god JUPITER. This was a prominent patrician family of Rome, who claimed descent from the mythological Julus, son of Aeneas. Its most notable member was Gaius Julius Caesar, who is known for his clever conquest of Gaul. After a civil war he became the dictator of the Roman Republic, but was eventually stabbed to death in the senate.
Although this name was borne by several early saints, including a pope, it was rare during the Middle Ages. It was revived in Italy and France during the Renaissance, and was subsequently imported to England.
