MAUNDERS of Leighton Buzzard
« on: Saturday 27 December 08 11:21 GMT (UK) »
I would be grateful if someone could provide me with details of the family of Alfred George Maunders who was born in Leighton Buzzard in 1884.

Alfred was my great grandfather and I understand that he was a chauffeur for Lord Brownlow. 

Did Lord Brownlow have an estate in Leighton Buzzard?

interesting that he's the only lad in the country with that name in FreeBMD, for the 1881 to 1889 period.

In 1901 theres an Alfred, PoB Bucks, Ringshall, near the Gaddesdons, a bit south of Leighton Buzzard .....

RG13/1328; Folio: 13; Page: 15 - Little Gaddesden, Herts

he also is unique in name and age - want more ?

  Hi

  The Estate was not in Leighton Buzzard but took over a large area boardering Herts/ Beds & Bucks.
  There is a bit about the family and estate here but a little later than maybe your Alfred.

  www.edlesborough.gov.uk/community/brownlow/brownlow_estate.htm

 hope that works!

  Lord Brownlow had his own private waiting room at Berkhampstead station
 and there is a Brownlow B&B in Ivinghoe. The Brownlow Estate house was at Ashridge House and is a great area to spend time walking in.

  Find out more for yourself there is loads out there..... just google
  Lord Brownlow at Ivinghoe and see what comes up .

   Best Wishes
