2003 North is at the top Birmingham The first reference to the family here may be the marriage
of William Howgat and Sarah Syr
at Aston in 1697. Nathaniel Howcott (buried 1741) was the ancestor of most of
the Howcutts in the Birmingham area. The final
Howcutt living there was his great grandson, William (1792-1878). Bitteswell Howcutts lived here, probably continuously, between 1568 and 1856. Brixworth Henry Howcutt voted in respect of Brixworth property in
the 1702 and 1705 parliamentary elections. William Howcot,
a labourer, and Susan Walton were both living at Brixworth when they married
there on 24 June 1703. It is not known how Henry and William were related to
James Houcot who married Mary Ward of Brixworth in
1720. James and Mary established the Howcutt family that continued at Brixworth
until 1900. Bruntingthorpe Robert Howcott, originally from Bitteswell, lived here for
ten years or more prior to his death in 1602/3. His son Robert (about
1575-1635) had a number of children christened at Bruntingthorpe in the early
17th century, including Robert Howcott of Stoughton. Claybrooke Thomas Harcatt paid the lay
subsidy tax here in 1524. Coventry The Howcutt surname and variations are found here between
1474 and 1732. It is quite feasible that the family lived here continuously
between those dates. Gilmorton Jane, wife of Robert Howcott, was recorded as living here
in 1579 but was buried at Bruntingthorpe in 1593. Great Oxendon James Howcutt was living here when he married Mary Ward in
1720 and moved to Brixworth. Harbury John, son of Thomas Howcutt of Leamington Priors, was
living here in 1851. Holcot & Huncote Places that the Howcutt surname may have developed from. Husbands Bosworth William Hulcott paid the lay
subsidy tax here in 1524. Kettering Location of Howcutt's Corner. Leamington Priors Thomas Howcutt from Brixworth (1804-1873) was living here
in 1851. Leamington Priors is now known as Royal Leamington Spa. Lichfield Edward Howcott lived here from about 1673 until his death
in 1729. Old Old Lodge was the birthplace of Elizabeth Martin, who
married Thomas Howcutt of Brixworth in 1800. Shearsby The Howcott family lived here at least from 1607/8 to
1704. South Croxton William Howcott, formerly of Shearsby, was buried here in
1701. Stoke Albany The people called Holcott who
lived here around 1700 were almost probably descended from the Howcott family
of Bruntingthorpe. Stoughton Robert Howcott (1608-1658), who had been christened at
Bitteswell, had eleven children baptised or buried at Stoughton between
1632/3 and 1652. He was still residing there at the time of his death. Yardley Hastings Location of Howcott (or Howcut)
