WICKENDEN TOURS

Since the Wickenden ancestors migrated all across Northern Europe, it might be interesting to organize tours of some of these historic locations. The tours might include: 1. The Wingham Cluster - including Wingham and four nearby hamlets where our ancestral tribe, the Wicingas, first settled in Kent, after crossing the Strait of Dover. 2. The Kingdom of the Hwicce - including locations in the West Midlands where the Wicingas settled to create the tribe, territory, and medieval kingdom of the Hwicce. 3. The Wickendens of Cowden - including the dozen or so homes in Cowden known to have been established, owned, or associated with Wickendens. 4. The Wicken Migration across Kent - including the half-dozen or so places settled as the Wicken migrated with their herds across the Weald of Kent to Wickenden in Cowden. 5. The Wicken Migration across the Continent - the dozen or so villages in Poland, Austria, Bavaria, Germany, and the Netherlands with place-names, such as Wickendorf and Wickenburg, where the Wicingas settled before crossing to Britain.
