Freke Family Researchers --

I found the record below about a Henry Freke who shipped from Bristol, England to Virginia in 1676. Does this ring a bell with anyone's line on the England or Virginia side of the pond?

Here's the record in detail:

From the website of the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities, at the University of Virginia, Virtual Jamestown Archive, Searchable Registers of Servants Sent to Foreign Plantations, The Bristol Registers, at http://www.iath.virginia.edu/vcdh/jamestown/indentures/advse...

“The Bristol Registers records all indentured servants who left from the port of Bristol, England from 1654-1686. The database contains records for approximately 10,000 indentured servants sent from Bristol to the New World. The Bristol Registers database are taken from the book The Bristol Registers of Servants Sent to Foreign Plantations, 1654-1686, by Peter Wilson Coldham, published by the Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., Baltimore, in 1988. The original registers, entitled Servants to Foreign Plantations, were contained in two leather-bound volumes and can be found in the archives of the Corporation of the City of Bristol, England. Coldham has modernized the town and village names. Editorial comments added by Coldham are indicated by parenthese and brackets…”
