I am new to genealogy, and nearly new on the Net.I am stumbling my way along the path back through the Severns family history.The Severns relatives go backwards from my paternal grandmother, Flora Severns, back to Thomas Severans of Broadway & Powick, b. 1529-1535 in England, m. in 1570 to Elizabeth Nash, d. 1591-2 in Powich, Worcestershire, England.There I have hit a dead end.I do have a copy of the Sovereign family crest which is quite impressive, but really would love to fill in the blanks.Would appreciate any info you could provide.Thanks...Jill
