About this listen

Welcome to Your History Your Story!

In this episode, we’re joined by author and educator Sarah Dixwell Brown to discuss her book Regicide in the Family: Finding John Dixwell. Sarah’s journey began with an ancient family heirloom that led her to uncover the dramatic life of her seven-times-great-grandfather, John Dixwell—one of the judges who sentenced King Charles I of England to death in 1649.

Forced to flee to the New World to escape execution himself when the monarchy was restored under King Charles II, Dixwell’s story is one of intrigue, survival and hidden history.

We hope you will enjoy this fascinating story!
