HENRY FITZHUGH was born in 1614 in Bedford, Bedfordshire County, England to William Fitzhugh & Margaret Smith.
Henry married Mary King (daughter of Rev. Giles King) circa 1639 in Bedford, Bedfordshire County, England, and They had NINE children that are known of:
Anne Fitzhugh (1639-?),
Margaret Fitzhugh-[Unknown] (1640-1676),
Susan Fitzhugh-Varney (1642-?),
Mary Fitzhugh (1643-?),

Henry was a Woolen Draper by profession. It is documented that he was a Member of the Council 1648 - 1649; the Mayor of Bedford, England in 1649; and served as an Alderman 1650 - 29 September 1665. There was a portrait made of Henry Fitzhugh circa 1634, which ecame part of his son William Fitzhugh's estate, and today is part of the Virginia Historical Society's holdings.
