Great - thank you Maddie.

I think one of those Elizabeths and the Matthew are my descendants! Both would have been in their 70s or 80s by that time so that makes sense. I will have to pop over to Sarratt sometime soon and see if the grave(s) still exists.

As for the others, I'm sure they have some kind of link to me but I'll have to dig a bit deeper to see how it all fits together.

Anyway, many thanks for your valuable help!

Kind regards
Howard

Hi Maddie

That's very kind of you - thank you! There are a few names which I can give you (all might have died in and around 1800-1850)...
Matthew Timberlake
Elizabeth Timberlake
James Timberlake
Jane Timberlake

Sorry to be cheeky but you also might be able to solve big mystery - in case you have burial records for Kings or Abbots Langley around 1890...  :-[

Joseph (Joe) Timberlake (son of Kings Langley and died 1890 in Islington but I think he may have been buried back in Herts)

If there's anything I can help with just shout - my family tree is pretty extensive for Timberlakes and associated families in Bucks/Herts.

Many thanks again for your kind help  :)

Hertfordshire / Where have all the TIMBERLAKES gone?

Hi there

I've been doing my family history for some time now and, with the help of others, managed to get my tree back to the 1480's in Buckinghamshire. However, about 200 years of my family's past was spent in Kings/Abbots Langley and Sarratt - the last link with my family and the villages was around 1900. I have been back to both Kings Langley and Abbots Langley on numerous occasions to find a trace of my family but can barely find a single grave of any Timberlake let alone a direct ancestor.  ???

Has anyone come across a Timberlake grave on their travels? Is there some graveyard in that area I have missed where one or two of my relatives are lying?

Perhaps I'm being a bit naive, expecting to find many but with such a long association with that area, surely there must be something. Perhaps they were too poor to afford a grave?

If anyone could help then that would be fantastic.  :)

Many thanks
Howard
