Details

The SLHG website is regularly used by members of the public to enquire about whose ancestors have lived in the village. Likewise when residents are downsizing or moving away they use this opportunity to sort out family papers and decide to offer them to our SLHG archive.

The talks cover a number of families who have used one of these approaches in the last few years

STURGESS ……police family who famously arrested murderer of Sarah Marshall at Little Staughton

PAGE…….. who are the descendants of the Blacksmiths in Sharnbrook and many other surrounding villages

SOLESBURY…….A family of gardeners who worked at the large houses in the village

HIPWELL…… owners of Stoke Mills from the early C19th through to its closure and conversion to a theatre
