It all started in Gloustershire in 669 when a Saxon named Tettie founded a Monistarty. Luckily because we tugged our forelock when necessary, we prospered, the wool trade.

Later when the Frogs came we lucked out, we were forced onto Kings land and thus paid a Quit Rent in cash, again the wool Trade. Because this rent was reordered we needed a name and a patrinome.

Because William was this ancestors name, Wyllyame, we became Wyllykynes, Little Will or in this case Little Bill.
