 As part of our Parish Register Transcription Project we are holding sessions in Aylesbury and Bourne End for members to get involved in the project. So if you have a couple of hours to spare why not pop along.
In addition to helping with the project you will gain experience of parish registers and you never know you might find a lost relative or at least get a lead on where to research next! |

 We have been approached by a firm of architects working on a history of the Cliveden Estate and its cottages to see whether any of our members are related to the staff who worked there or can give any information about the life of the staff.
We know a little about the Gamekeeper , Benjamin Cooper, the Carter/gardener James Ludgate and little about a gardener, James Jeffries. Are you related to any of these or any other member of the staff who worked 'below stairs' or on the estate? If so can you let us know so that we can put you in touch. Email us |
