Ron, I agree that the Head families of New York - or at least those in New York prior to 1850 - were descended from Henry Head of Little Compton. DNA evidence is clear that the Heads from Virginia were of a completely unrelated line. I am descended from a Henry Head who lived in Plainfield, Windham Co., CT in 1775, later moving to Adams, Berkshire Co., MA before settling in Hartwick, Otsego Co., NY. He was the patriarch of the Otsego and Steuben County branches of Heads. I believe he is the Henry, son of William Head of Little Compton (deceased) who was mentioned in the will of William's father in law, John Horswell.
