Sweets of Rhode Island: Newport to Modbury a Great Migration Family Mystery

A journey from colonial Newport, Rhode Island to Modbury in Devon, England near Plymouth, follows an early American Great Migration story across the Atlantic. After a walk through the Historic District of Newport with its 1700s houses, we explore the origins of the Rhode Island Sweet family from the Sweet-Austin Burial Ground gravesite on North Kingstown, across the ocean to Modbury, Devon on England’s south coast to trace the family to the Traine Estate, with look inside St George’s Church of Modbury, where a deacon is memorialized. Part of my America 250 and Transatlantic Origins series, this episode blends history, travel, and family research to show how the landscapes of New England and rural England still hold the clues to early colonial identity.
