Welcome!
This web-site is dedicated to preserving the history of the William George and Melia Ann (Parkin) Hewlett family. I hope that descendents of William George and Melia Ann and those otherwise related or possibly related by ancestry will find the material here to be of interest. I invite them to make contact with me, Ted (Edward S. Hewlett), the editor of this site at hewlett{at}shaw.ca (replace "{at}" with "@") and send further information and enquiries. Readers of this site who are Hewlett and Parkin descendants will want to also access Lorraine Trudgeon's "Hewlett Site." We are indebted to Lorraine for a tremendous amount of research which has greatly expanded our knowledge of the Hewlett and Parkin family trees. Lorraine's site has been up for a good length of time, and includes some great pictures and other information. For permission to access Lorraine's site, and for instructions in how to do so, e-mail her at lorraine{at]saskatoonberry.net [replace "{at}" with "@"] .

It was a great opportunity to meet some relatives we had not seen for a long time, and to get acquainted with some younger ones that we met for the first time. Congratulations to Lorraine, Brian, and their helpers!

My name is Casey Hewlett. We are members of an ancient family. My direct ancester is John Hewlett of Virginia, born before the War for Independence. The earliest mention of the family that I've found is 1066 AD. Before that, I think we were either German or French. From what I know, our family was loyal to the crown to the point of sacrifice. Our family isn't well known, but we will do what we can when it matters.
