LAMBOURNE
- Stanford in the Vale
Am looking for ancestors and descendants of LAMBOURNE'S many of whom were originally from Stanford in the Vale, Berkshire, England. My genaration and that of my grandparents ended up in the Maidenhead area. Would love to hear from any Lambourne's from the Hitcham-Burnham district of Buckinghamshire or Maidenhead. Charles Lambourne and Rhoda(King) were my great great grandparents. My great grandfather was their son James born 1872 married to Alice Wootten and my grandfather was their son George William born 1902 who married Dorothy Dobson. They settled in Maidenhead where my family are now. Look forward to hearing from anyone connected to me of who thinks they might be!

Richard & Sarah GREENAWAY
- Steventon
I have a death certificate for Sarah Greenaway who died September 21, 1865 in Steventon. She was 51 and the wife of a farmer. I suspect but cannot prove that she was the wife of Richard, born about 1803. Maiden name Monk. An inquest was held into her death. Anybody else researching this Greenaway family?

Greenaways of Steventon
- Steventon
I'm descended from Thomas Greenaway (Steventon, Berkshire; born about 1700, wife: Anne?); his son Benjamin (Steventon, Berk., about 1730, wife: Mary Brooks); his son Joseph (Steventon, Berk., about 1764, wife: Ann Phillips); and his son James (East Hendred, Berk., about 1810). James was married to Susannah/Susanna Cue in East Hendred, Berk., in 1830. They moved to Canada with their children (Woodstock, Ontario area). I found a Canadian record listing James' wife as "Susan", with children Wellington, Ann, Elizabeth, Sarah, and Harrieth. Eventually, James married Christina McKay (what happened to Susannah?). James and Christina had Joseph, Hector, and John (Jack) (my grandfather), and others. John (born: 1860, died: 1946-7) was estranged from his birth family; my mother has very little family history to pass on. My information comes from the internet as well as a descendant of the James/Susannah union. John was also married to a Tracey Casey in Ontario in 1882; any children? Not 100% sure of all my info; does anyone have anything to share? Any "relatives" out there?

SLATTERS marriage look up plse
- Steventon
If anyone has access to a Berkshire marriage index, would it be possible to look up the marriage of Thomas Slatter (sometimes shown as Slater) to Elizabeth. Thomas appears to have been born about 1761 and Elizabeth abt 1771. I believe she was from Drayton Berkshire. I am particularly interested in finding out where Thomas came from, he may have been born outside Berkshire. Thomas and Elizabeth lived in Steventon and had six children, one of them James (b 1807 d 1890) was my g g grandfather. He married Ann Mills in 1832 in Steventon and they had 9 children. One of those, Elizabeth Slatter was my g grandmother. She was born in Steventon in 1837 married Samuel Jordan in Headington Oxfordshire. She lived in Dorchester, Oxon, Esher, Kingston and Merton in Surrey before arriving in Battersea between 1877 and 1881. She lived in Battersea until her death in 1893. Elizbeth married for a second time in the 1880s to a Francis McCormack.
