Shropshire Lookup Requests / Re: Thomas Chettoe - 1540 to 1622 - Wem, Shropshire, England
« on: Sunday 07 April 24 14:46 BST (UK) »I don't know if this is significant, but there's a Thomas Cheto of Whitchurch (Salop), butcher, recorded in 1427. This is more than 100 years earlier, but less than 10 miles from Wem.

I'm impressed by that find. That is the earliest Chettoe I have seen. He could be related to the Wem family as they are places geographically close to each other. Also more likely related than the Chatto of Scotland, or the Chetwode of Buckinghamshire.
