Hello to Buddug and the list, Our local history society has a copy of W. Miller Higgs' book. We have had it for a long time because of the village connection with Billy Higgs, jockey and horse trainer, who lived here. We could photocopy parts for you, or would be willing to lend it on a short-term basis. I shall contact Buddug off-list to see whether we can help.

It's called 'A History of the Higges or Higgs family of South Stokes' , by W Miller Higgs. published 1933. I understand that it might not be available now due to the time scale but if anyone has any suggestions as to where I might obtain this book ,I'd be very grateful. I live in Wales so hopefully there is a subscriber in Oxfordshire that might be able to help . thanks and kind regards, Buddug Hollett
