Lightfoot dynasty

The Lightfoot dynasty refers to the members of the family descended from Nicholas Tucker, a gunsmith and planter from Chichester, Sussex, who settled in Jamestown in 1631, and whose son, Nicholas "Nicky" Tucker II, renamed himself Nicky Lightfoot after moving into the western mountains starting in the 1660's.
