Civil War (General)
My knoweldge of the Rook family's involvement is only what was handed down orally I have no written records. Though, because the generations are so wide in my family I have no reason to doubt the story handed down to my mother through her great auntie that the Rook(e) family, or my branch of it at least, were on King Charles' side and were not Roundheads. It ties in with their religion too as they were recusants (ie. R.C.) and thus much more likely to be on King Charles' side. Please let me know if your research throws anything up about them. Other family names are Stead/Steade/Steed and variations and Prosser, Pritchard and Morgan.
