I have an elusive ancestor who arrived in the USA in 1660 (Ipswich MA) I =
know that he was on a ship called the Virgo or Vergo, or I should say =
that he or his family was. This ship was either used to go from the =
continent to UK in the mid 1500's with some Hugenot refugee's from the =
St. Bartholomew's Massacre, or in the 1600's from the Normandy region in =
France to UK and on the USA. I have not been able to find anything on =
this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
