My Mom's family tree was researched many years ago the Honeywell's came from Germany, some where I have the records listing each descendant starting when they left Europe. In 1649 they landed in Connecticut by 1700 they ended up in Dallas PA which is 15 minutes from were I was born.
Dads family came in the 1600's but details are slim, I did find grave stones near were I was born in PA to early 1700's and history reference to a Major the Revolutionary war. Early pre revolution war gravestones were spelled SCOUTEN then afterwards most were as dad spelled it SCOUTON. Finally around 2000 I learned the whole story, seems half the family was pro revolution and the other half believed they would be better off as part off the British empire. After the war the British supporters were run of their land and ended up in Canada. The ones that supported the war stayed and changed it to SCOUTON to differentiate them selves from the others.
