Hi Kevin ... I am a Brackett, and wondering how many Brackett's are still in England? My father's family immigrated to the Massachusetts bay colony in 1630..So of course there are a few scattered around here and there... He came from Norfolk, and the family is thought to have come to England from Normandy, France at the time of Duke William in 1066. The name Brackett has two meanings... First, its the name of a Viking mead made with fermented honey... Another French version of the name means those landowners who hunted with hounds...i hope there is something you can tell me. Thanks, Lewis Brackett in San Diego...
Hi Lewis, around that time the clever Brackett"s ( Lawers, Doctors, Teachers) left for a new life and the farmers stayed in Norfolk or moved to County Cork Ireland. That is only a brief summary of a great big family
My DNA gives me a 96%% Irish Heritage ( both parents from Dublin ) and 4% from the Normandy region . The name could be a French name as a Dog handler who hunts birds 🐦🤔
