Tree 3: William Fitz-Henry

An Irish Protestant soldier from Dublin in the English Army. His father was named Hester Fitz-Henry, a lawyer from Dublin. However, I didn't know that when I drew up this tree, so at present it remains William's tree.
The family from William's first marriage were based in Winchester, England.
The family from his second marriage was based in the Surrey/ Buckinghamshire area of England.

If there are any descendants from William's first or second marriage still alive, I would be absolutely delighted to hear from you. Please drop me an email.

One known surviving son from second marriage emigrated to Canada. Any Fitz-Henry male with the name Woodfield as a given name is likely to be related to this branch.
