Most American Fosketts, including my family, trace their paternal line to John Foskett, who arrived in Massachusetts as early as 1658. Although there are many related families in the UK, Canada, Australia, and elsewhere, it is not clear how all of these families are related to John's American line.

My ancestry also includes the Betts, Bird, Caso, Crosby, Fowler, Gater, Kinsella, Reiss, and Smith families. My family tree contains information on many families, with Foskett, Fosgate, Fosket, Ward, Tufts, Parrott, Richardson, Leach, Coney, and Pettit being the most common surnames.
