I've gotten back to 1525 with one line, but not through much effort on my part. I saw on a Genuki surname page that someone was searching the name I was interested in. I sent an e-mail and a few weeks later I had a PDF of a carefully and thoroughly researched and annotated tree going back 225 years from our common ancestor in the 1750s. Part of the family has remained in the same town--near Wakefield--from the 1500s to the present.
