You could try Carol Sawbridge at sawbridge@zadia.fsnet.co.uk - she is the village historian or finally Des Dix might be able to help - he as lots of old photos but mainly connect to the watercress beds. He lives beside the ford at Yew Cottage, Ewelme.

Rosemary HICKS, Would you possibly be related to Bishop Edward Lee HICKS (born abt. 1844 and Bishop of Lincoln Cathedral). He was the son of Edward HICKS (1812-1879) and Catherine PUGH (born 1812), whose sister was my great great great grandmother, Mary Ann PUGH (1799-1870), who married a cordwainer from Newbury, William WOODMAN (1791-1868). They married in Oxford St. Michail at the Northgate on 31 Oct. 1830. The parents of Catherine and Mary Ann were John PUGH (died 26 April 1821 in the Parish of St. Ebbe) and Mary Ann MALTBY (1775-1857) who were married 26 Dec. 1797 at Oxford St. Martin. I have 33 letters from most of the 12 siblings of Mary Ann Pugh WOODMAN, ending with one from Bishop HICKS saying his aunt Susannah PUGH had died in her 101st year. The siblings kept up a lively correspondence from 1833 on when the WOODMAN family went to the US briefly, then to Canada (St. Thomas, Ontario in 1834, then New Westminster, British Columbia in 1861, still as a shoemaker. Any member of the MALTBY, PUGH or HICKS family who would like to see if their ancestors were mentioned in these letter are welcome to write. Mary Ann was the eldest and her siblings were: Rev. John P:UGH, Thomas PUGH, Catherine Pugh HICKS, Sophia PUGH (married a cousin), James Maltby PUGH, Elizabeth Pugh COOPER, Catherine Pugh HICKS, Ann Pugh KIRBY, Jane Pugh GAULTIER, Henry PUGH, another son (?died young) and Emily PUGH. I have cartes de visite photos for most of these people, mostly from the 1860s. Cheers, Janet WHITE, Burnaby, BC
