A friend has mentioned her family believe they arrived in UK from Holland and established themselves in Bedfordshire.
Their name was van Hooton or similar. There is a famous Dutch family called van Hoeten!
She thinks they arrived during the 19th Century.
The surname has been modified over the years to a more English version.
Can anyone throw anynlight on this Dutch/English family?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
