well, this suddenly struck me as I saw all those "w"'s go by. My last name is Grow, and an uncle a while back traced our North American lineage back to one John Grow, who lived in Ipswich, Mass, arriving on the shores around 1640, IIRC. one book I found, "the History of Newbury, VT" states that he came "from Wales". my Father inquired of some sort of authority in Wales who said that Grow didn't sound like much of a Welsh name. but, I wonder, might it have been Grw? would that even be likely? I am just really curious, and would love to be able to share some info with my family.
