Comments On our recent visit to Whitchurch & Woodcote we met up, for the first time, with some distant relatives from our extended Higley family. We were also fortunate enough to meet Nick Brazil & purchase a copy of his DVD "Mr Toad's Village - The Story of Whitchurch-on-Thames". It is wonderful that someone has taken the time to produce such a professional & interesting DVD on the village that can be enjoyed by both us and future generations. The DVD also brought back many fond memories for my mother, who was born at Whitchurh Hill.

Comments I have been looking at your photo gallery. Several generations of my mother's family lived in Bridge Cottages, Whitchurch in the 19C. I suspect that they were demolished long ago. I wonder if you have any information about them? I would be most grateful if there is anything.

Comments I had ancestors living in Whitchurch from around 1840. They were named PAINTER and lived in Bridge Cottages. I know at least 3 generations lived there. My mother's father was Harry Painter and his father, grand father and great grandfather were all called George. I would love to know if any descendants are still living in the village. Love the website.

Comments I have found out some of my ancestors came from Whitchurch and I was wondering if anyone could help me find out more. They were the Hine family William born in 1782 and his wife Ann born 1795, their son John born 1837, his wife Harriet born 1846. John was a shoemaker and lived at 58 The Village ? They had 3 children Sarah born 1874, Charlotte born 1871 married to a Thomas Simms and my great grandmother Jemina born 1869. If anyone has anything to add please get in contact. Many thanks

Comments my family came to Australia from the Whitchurch/Goring area in the mid 1800's. William Simmonds married Catherine Cooper (of Beech Farm) at Whitchurch on 27th March, 1809. I am hoping this farm is the one at Whitchurch Hill. Can anyone help with information? This is a wonderful site for those like me to get a glimpse of the areas our ancestors were from.

Comments We lived at New Barn, Manor Road back in 1992. My husband was transferred to the Brewery at Reading for 18 months. We have very fond memories of Whitchurch-on-Thames, and especially of Les Martin, who tended our garden and always had time for a chat with me. We are visiting the UK next year and certainly wish to show our children New Barn and the village. It was lovely to find this site: I was describing the toll bridge to my son and googled the village and found the site. Cheers Bridie McKenzie

Comments Just looked at your village information. My fathers family (weller) lived in your village for over 200 years I have traced my family tree back to early 1700's. the men were mainly farm labourers. My great grandfather lived in Palmers cottages - the one now called Farthings. My great great grandfather was a shepherd and worked at Beach Farm. My great grandparents Edward and Alice Weller are buried in the church at the top of Whitchurch Hill. does anyone remember them? A relative Dorothy now lives in the Almes houses so it is nice to think that a relative still lives in Whitchurch!

Comments My gggfather, Willilam Brown, was born in 1850, in Whitchurch, he was the son of Joseph Brown and Charlotte Liddiard. Would be very interested to know if descendants of this family still reside in the area. Joseph's forefathers resided in the Bradfield, Midgham and Thatchum areas. Thanks.

Comments I use to row with a 'Lawrence Mahan' who I have lost touch with over the last 7 years when he moved to Canada. I think I remember that his parents lived in Whitchurch on Thames and I wondered if anybody could help me. Even if it is just to tell me I'm wrong.

Comments A fantastic website. My grandparents used to live in Whitchurch on Manor Road. I managed to visit last year. It was just as I remembered it as a child. I believe that some of my Hutt and Higley family members may still live in or close to Whitchurch. Would be interested in making contact with relatives.

Comments Seriously nostalgic stuff! I was raised in the village, living in Swanston West from 1956 for 15 years and have wonderful memories of the village, the cow pat covered football pitch up Manor Road, The building of Swanston Field estate; in fact I got to drive the bulldozer on day 1. Great site, well done.

Comments A brilliant website, well done to all who contributed to this website. This is a valuable website for me because my family tree roots have taken me back to Whitchurch-on-Thames. My direct descendants lived in the village from around 1800 - 1850. Does anyone know if there is anyone with the REEVES surname living in the village now? If there is please make contact with me.
