Migration of the Jugend family

For many English families, the political and religious disarray that shrouded England made the far away New World an attractive prospect. On cramped disease-ridden ships, thousands migrated to those British colonies that would eventually become Canada and the United States. Those hardy settlers that survived the journey often went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations in which they landed. Analysis of immigration records indicates that some of the first North American immigrants bore the name Jugend or a variant listed above: Thomas and Elizabeth Jugan, who sailed to Virginia in 1656; Thomas Judkins, who sailed to New England in 1664; Elizabeth Judkin to Virginia in 1685; and J.D. Judkins to San Francisco in 1853..
