Hi Lana and Veronica just had to post this information. I know most of the names you have mentioned. My Grandmother was a Maywood before marrying a Smith. I spent my childhood in Newbury Park from early 50's. It was then called the freehold and functioned very much like a village. My Grandmother had an Uncle Stephen who married a Sarah they in turn had two boys called, Stephen brn 1979 and Henry brn 1881. Henry was described as a bricklayer at the age of 20 in 1901 and Stephen Maywood was described as a carman. The Maywoods seem to have started life as Mawhood. I have just been sent lots of information re the family and I need to sort through it. Although I know for sure that Thomas Fountain married a Jane sometime in 1800 and they had a daughter Hannah who married Henry Maywood (he was born 1802) they in turn had a son called Henry born 1830 who married Lucy White on 7th Janauary 1855 they were my Grandmothers grandparents. Most people at that time were working on farms in the area. Sorry I haven't any photo's. I remember the Hunts and something tells me that they could have been involved with the Salvation Army, but don't hold me to that as my memory isn't that clear.

Victoria and Lana, I am sorry I am not up to speed using this site yet so am replying to you both together.
Firstly Victoria, thank you so much for the photograph, yes looking at the paperwork I have been sent Stephen certainly spread himself around! My Grandmother was Emily, her eldest sister was Alice brn 1880, reputed to be a half sister, but this was never substantiated, then James, born 1886 he was killed August 1918 in France towards the end of second world war, then William was brn 1889, Lucy brn (no date), Esther born 1892, Emily, brn 1894 and lastly Annie brn 1898. Their father Henry Maywood, whose brother was Stephen was blinded at some pointed in his life. I will be in touch again once I have sorted through the information I have, but it looks as we have a family connection. Thanks once again.
I have been on Genes, but I haven't subscribed to it just put a little info on.
Lana, I am sure we must be related somewhere along the line, it seems everyone is that came from Horns Road. I have some information that might be of interest, firstly Mrs English was a good friend of my Grandmothers. I remember Alice Hunt, a very nice lady. Not sure if this helps but I have details of a Edith Fountain who married a John Faulkner in 1907 in Holy Trinity Church, John Faulkner was a Greengrocer he was born March 1882. I am not sure where Edith Rose Fountain/Maywood fits into the family tree, or even if she is anything to do with your family tree.
Anway just to thank you both and I will be in touch with more information as it surfaces. Perhaps there is something you could help me with my Great Grandmother who was married to Henry Maywood, was originally an Annie Pipe(or Piper) she was a midwife in the Newbury Park area and died in 1919. I have no real information on her.

Hi Pem
I have some (unchecked) info regarding a William Mawhood b 1777 who changed his name to Maywood. William's grandfather was a Samuel Mawhood who m Susan Weatherhead at Barking in 1744. Circumstantial evidence gives me a Samuel Mawhood as a 'leaf' on my family tree who may be the same. Maybe you have more on this.
