Jake Bugg is an English singer, songwriter, and musician. He has (at least some) ancestral roots in Nottinghamshire for centuries.
He is the son of Leeysa Kennedy and David Bugg.
Jake’s paternal grandparents are Edwin Bugg (who likely is the son of Edward Bugg and Lucy A. Etherington) and Colleen Duffy.
Jake’s maternal grandfather is Charles R. Kennedy (who likely is the son of Norman Kennedy and Emily Lowton).
Jake’s maternal grandmother is Karen M. Thresher (the daughter of Alfred W. Thresher and Mary M. Jobson). Alfred is the son of Alfred Thresher and Alice L. Smalley. Mary M. is the daughter of John E. “Jack” Jobson and Edna Annie Smithurst.
Jake’s matrilineal ancestry can be traced back to his great-great-great-great-great-great-grandparents, Joseph Coleman, who was born, c. 1797, in Nottinghamshire, England, and Joseph’s wife, Dorothy Buxton, who was born, c. 1802, in Derbyshire, England.
