Migration of the Latona family

Thousands of English families in this era began to emigrate the New World in search of land and freedom from religious and political persecution. Although the passage was expensive and the ships were dark, crowded, and unsafe, those who made the voyage safely were rewarded with opportunities unavailable to them in their homeland. Research into passenger and immigration lists has revealed some of the very first Latonas to arrive in North America: Francis Latner, who sailed to Virginia in 1637; and Quentin Latner, who was recorded in Waterloo County, Ontario in 1877.
