Do you know if any of your ancestors migrated to Newfoundland?

Here are some early records of the HEAD name in Newfoundland___

A John Head is mentioned in Benjamin Lester's Diary on the French occupation of Trinity Harbour, ( Newfoundland ) before the invasion: Thursday July 1 1762: " Wind at S.W.fine gale but no news of the French--- Everyone in confusion, noe boats at sea, Eight of my servants ran away with JOHN HEAD"S boat---

Thomas Head lived at Ferryland, Newfoundland 1795 to 1806

William Head married Catherine Knight ,Congregational Church - St. John's - Jan 02, 1806

Henry Head was a Planter at Fogo , Newfoundland in1808 and 1816

A Dautr born to THOS & ANN HEAD of Greens Pond, Newfoundland pub’y named SOPHIA. Augst 31st 1810


John        of        John & Mary Head       Joe Bat's Arm baptized Aug. 21, 1821
William of        John & Mary Head       Joe Bat's Arm baptized Aug. 21, 1821
Amy        of        John & Mary Head       Joe Bat's Arm baptized Aug. 21, 1821

I have traced my ancestors back to the John and Mary Head who had the children baptized in 1821
