Sarah Dixwell Brown is a direct descendant of John Dixwell, one of 59 British judges who sentenced King Charles I to death in 1649. When faced with the prospect of being hanged, drawn, and quartered, Dixwell and fellow regicides Edward Whalley and William Goffe fled the country, eventually arriving in New Haven. Brown will present the rest of the story—from a very personal perspective—during a virtual presentation, “Regicide in the Family: Finding John Dixwell,” via Zoom and Facebook Live.
