Migration of the Sallykins family

Many English families tired of political and religious strife left Britain for the new colonies in North America.

An inquiry into the early roots of North American families has revealed a number of immigrants bearing the name Sallykins or a variant listed above: the name represented in many forms and recorded from the mid 17th century in the great migration from Europe.
