John Hurt's grandfather Walter Lord Brown was born to London parents. Now here is an Anc tree which has Walter's family listed. Not sure how accurate it is but one Anc tree says his gran was Sarah Lewington, and Sarah had a brother with Campbell as a middle name, which could indicate a family name. So John may have Scottish roots.
The Walter Lord Browne has been documented on WDYTYA, but as the title of this thread goes, the Lewington connection may be Ancestry tree rubbish.
