Thankyou Ann
I think I just saw the subject and thought there might be a few pictures to go with my research ;D
I will have a look at my notes and give you a very loud shout ;) and hope I don't wake you up as I am as far away as you can get.
 Most of the Buckinghamshire research was for a friend of mine whose Taylor family lived in Waddesdon for many generations.
Thanks
Barbara

Hello - I've just come across Ann's post (no. 35, 19 Sept):

Timothy Turnit Buckland was baptised with that name in 1806!   So the story of the turnip is just that, a story.

Best wishes  .....  Vern

Well, my gt-gt-gt-grandfather was Henry Buckland, TT's eldest brother.   I had traced back to him in Oxfordshire using Parish records and the Censuses online.   But as he was born in Buckinghamshire, I went to Aylesbury Library and found his baptism in 1799, and also his parents' marriage and the baptisms of Timothy Turnit, Solomon and - er - William, I think - (notes not to hand).

Best wishes  .....  Vern

In that case Vern we are related.  Timothy is my great great great great grandfather!! I would love to know more family history if you have it?  I have Timothy as one of 10 children to Dorton and Mary.  If you have any information further back then that then I would be very pleased to receive it.

Kind regards

Emma

Hi Vern and Emma,
Well we are all distant cousins.  Timothy Turnit was my second great grandfather.
Well he may not have liked his turnips Vern, but he liked his oats.

I now look at my own father with different eyes.  His eyes were so black, well I could not describe them as brown.  He had dark brown hair and he had that typical Rom look.  Oh I wish I had looked more gypsy like he he he  Romantic old fool aint I?

This snap is my Dad and I....

This is a reply to the note posted by Firstome on 17 April 2009!

I have just noticed your comments about Elisha Ing, born in Haddenham in 1659.  I'm writing because he also appears on my tree, although I'm not too convinced about some of the people in-between!

My tree shows Elisha married to Jane Stephens.  They had a son Joseph (b. 1683), who had a son George (or grandson?) b. 1743.  George had a daughter Sarah (b. 1771), who married Thomas Herridge in 1792.  Sarah and Thomas are my Gx3-grandparents on my father's side.  Have I got my facts right?  And do you have any more detail on the Ings? - all I really know about them is that their births and deaths were all registered in West Wycombe.   

Co-incidentally, there are Stones on my mother's side, and her last job before retirement was working for Mr Ercolani at Ercol!

I hope you are well.
