« on: Wednesday 06 November 13 13:57 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to trace my ancestor Charles Coleman who was born in Great Brickhill, Buckinghamshire
between 1819 - 1822.  The family however originated from Drayton Parslow, Buckinghamshire.  Charles and his family emigrated to South Australia in 1854

Hi Rosie,

Wow thanks for the quick reply,  I hit a brick wall with this family about 20 years ago and am now just getting back to them.  This information is great and I will look at the website link you sent and see what else I can find out.

Thanks
Vicki

Bletchley Archaeological and Historical Society transcribed the PRs for the three Brickhills, Great, Little and Bow some years ago but I see on their website http://www.mkheritage.co.uk/bahs/publications.html that they only have copies of Little Brickhill left for sale. They suggest using Bucks FHS services.
