My ancestors migrated form Wurttemberg, Germany in the 1600s. A Jacob HOLDER, occupation: Butcher came to Gloucestershire early 1600s and his Sons also Jacob were indentured as apprentices. Most were Butchers however another Jacob Holder was apprenticed to a Grocer, Harlewood WELLS.
Two questions if I may. Why did German butchers migrate to Gloucestershire?
Any kind soul have ancestors named HOLDER in early Gloucestershire or have information relative to this family line?
Kind regards
