Wow, interesting to see that a once humble farmhouse was home to the aristocracy! I would never have thought it...

The 1891 census shows that living in Cutler's Farm were:
RG12/1140/108/16          No. 109.
Lampard, John William, Head, Married, 27, from Zeales Green, Wiltshire. He is a Prudential Insurance Agent.
Lampard, Martha, Wife, Married, 24, from Wishford Magna, Wiltshire.
Number of rooms if less than five: 4.

No 110.
Austin, William, Head, Married, 24, from Totteridge, Bucks. Agricultural Labourer
Austin, Mary Ann, Wife, Married, 34, from Uxbridge Moor, Bucks. Needleworker?
Austin, Florence Daisy, Dau, U, from Bucks, Lane End
Number of Rooms if less than five: 2.

No 111.
Birdsey, William, Head, Married, 26, from Towersey, Oxon. Agricultural Labourer
Birdsey Ellen, Wife, Married, 25, from Radnage, Bucks.
Birdsey, Martha Maria, Dau, U, 4, from Stokenchurch, Oxon.
Birdsey, Thomas William, Son, U, 2months, from Lane End, Bucks.
Number of rooms if less than five: 2.

Mr. Birdsey and Mr. Austin are both employed, but by whom?

The 1901 census is much less confusing:
RG13/1351/24/18
Black, Barbara, Servant?, 48, Housekeeper, Domestic. from New Shoreham, Sussex
Plumridge, May, Servant? 13, General Servant. From Bucks, High Wycombe.

Possibly servant to house next door? Next door is "Pebbly Hill" and "Water Gardens". Then, "Bissimere Pond", "Hill Green" and "Clay Lane". Then, it is the end of the Eccelestical Parish of Lane End Holy Trinity.

1911 census shows:
RG14PN7891 RG78PN394 RD145 SD2 ED5 SN37
Johnson Elizabeth, Single, 58, "Private Means", Oxford St Giles.
Turner Clara, Single, 28, Servant, Oxford St. Ebbes.
Tanner Emily, Widow, 51, Visitor, Pillow Case Maker, Hambledon Bucks.

Matt.

Thanks for that Matt - really interesting. Do the registers go further back than that? I think the house must have been built around then so perhaps not. And is that as far as they go to 1893 or is there anything more recent?
How's the rewrite going?
Cheers
Cat

Hi Cat,

The registers go up to very recently in the Record office but that's in Aylesbury. I live a bit far away to be backward and forward. The ones I mentioned to you were from the Lane End Parish registers disc issued by the Bucks Family History Society for £7.70. The registers on disc go from 1832 to 1901. But the Tithe map from 1842 says the farm was 'Priest's farm'. I am totally confused about this and shall have to go out to the Record office to look at the Tithe map again.

Me and my mum are in Lane End on the 13th for 'Village Day' but it's your daughter's birthday so perhaps not coming to see the house. I have made a couple of contacts in the village (a lady from Fining's Cottages, and the churchwarden from Cadmore End) so shall see them. The lady from Lane End can remember my family in Lane End in the 1940's. The churchwarden is opening the burial register for me to poke my nose in, and my mother and I should be going to Fingest to look at the headstones, and the ones at Lane End. Should be an interesting day..

The rewrite is going slowly. I have exams at the moment so if I have free time soon I may rewrite it.

Hi Matt
We are around Sat afternoon - my daughter's birthday party finishes at 1.30pm and we were planning to pop up to the village fete so you could give me a ring and perhaps we could meet briefly or you could come have a look at the house! Not sure how private this post is so if you want to email me direct on (*) to sort out.
Cheers
Cat

Hi Cat,
I'd love to come and see the house. I think we're going to be at the fete from about 12 onwards but I think will be going to the church to talk to the churchwarden first. Yes maybe we can meet I will email you my mobile number. I'll bring some stuff to show (the PR's including refs to your house) and the info I have from the tithe map in 1843/1865.

I think the moderator will take off your email address but I have noted it down anyway.
Thanks,
Matt

Hi Matt
If it suits you you can come and wander round the outside of the house while we are out - it might be easier for you to fit in everything then - and then we could meet you later.
Speak soon
Cat

Does anyone know if there is any documentary evidence of any members of the Cutler family actually working or living on Cutler's farm?
