Monmouthshire
is the location of the third main area for PASK and PASKE families.
The earliest progenitor in Monmouthshire is
Isaac PASK born c1700. In
the narratives section, the icon 
indicates Isaac's descendants. This includes his grandson Isaac
PASK of Kilgwrrwg, who was baptised in September 1765 in Newchurch.
Descendancy charts for other Monmouthshire families
are listed in the charts
section. These include:
Philip PASK
(1768-1843)
Isaac PASK
(c1800- ) of Bryngwyn
James PASK
(1794/8- ) of Kilgwrrwg
Clive Hill, a Pask researcher recently provided
an interesting possibility of a connection between the Monmouthshire
and the Suffolk PASKs:
Clive writes:
Elizabeth de Clare (1296..1360) appears
to be a possible ancestor on my maternal side. During a recent
visit to Clare (Suffolk) , I obtained a leaflet outlining the
life of Elizabeth de Clare (Elizabeth de Burgh) by a local historian
called David Hatton, describing Elizabeth's life at Clare Castle
and at Usk Castle, and the 17 day journeys from Clare to Usk..."the
centres of her two groups of estates". It may well have been
that the Suffolk Pask(e)s were part of Elizabeth's entourage on
these journeys. I was amazed when I looked at the locations of
Pask(e)s in villages around Clare both on the Pask website and
the LDS site....Hundon, Stoke by Clare, Long Melford,Glemsford,
Belchamp Walter, Great Yeldham etc, and a similar distribution
around Usk. It's all conjecture, but an interesting thought nevertheless!
