beckley tubney
(Oct 09

Tubney
I can not find any reference to beckleys in tubney before the marriage of daniel beckley b1791 to elizabeth taylor b1796,the marriage was on 22/11/1813 at fyfield.tubney did not have its own records until after 1847.
The marriage record says Daniel was not of this county (berks).
There are beckleys around Oxford,but i don't no if there is a connection,perhaps someone could help.
I found a reference to a William Beckley-protecters charter granting fishing rights from islip to oxford granted after he ferried troops across the river cherwell at marston around the time of the siege of oxford 1645 the charter was beleived to be held by the Beckley family until it was sold around 1900 to an angling society.

STRONG Stanford
(Feb 09
Green)
Stanford in the Vale
We are looking for a recorded birth of Justus Corderoy or Strong about 1833. He was the illegitimate son of Joseph Corderoy, miller of Blewbury, and possibly the child of a STRONG. Martha STRONG was Joseph's housekeeper for many years, and she came from Stanford,born about 1788, but her age is such that if she had a daughter, then the daughter is the more likely mother. She is recorded as of Stanford, so we need to check for a birth there about 1778. If her daughter was Justus Strong's mother then the daughter would have been born from 1800 onwards. Justus was recorded in the Parish records as STRONG, but census returns and the later family as CORDEROY. Ideas?

puzey, Pusey, Church
(Feb 09
Green)
Stanford in the Vale
Several Puzeys and Churches moved from Berkshire to London and, in the 1840s and 1850s, to Vermilion County Illinois. They were centered around West Challow and Stanford in the Vale. As far as I can tell these Puzeys were not part of the family that owned Pusey House. I have the Puzey genealogy fairly set with only a few questions, but I'm baffled at who Henry Church is. He married Sophia Puzey in 1832 in London. He appears to be related to several London-born Churches such as Adolphus Bellingham Church and George William Frederick Church, who also emigrated around the same time. Any help?
