Exploring the Story of Carausius

Submitted by:  
        Dr John Pitts, MB, BS, MSc, PhD resides in Southampton, U.K (but is currently in the process of moving back home to Wales where he was reared) and is a retired General Practitioner and medical educationalist.  Having always been interested in history, his attention fell upon a document which purported to trace his fiancee's Family History back to the 14th century. During the 2020 COVID lockdown, he began his own research of her ancestry. With the assistance of Darrell Wolcott and others, he concluded that project in December, 2020 by publishing a 48 page booklet summarizing his findings.  That work led to additional projects to explore some of the famous historical figures whom he had met along his journey.
 
NOTICE
          Dr John Pitts has since published, in 2022, an historical novel "Rebellion - Carausius & Allectus, the Welshmen Who Stole the Roman Empire".  It is a 208 page softcover book available at Amazon and other booksellers.
