Hi :D
New to RootsChat but so glad to have found the site!
Have been looking into my husband's side of the family. These are the Collyer's in his line:
Matthew Collyer b. 1781, Murlsey. Married Elizabeth ? b. 1791, Mursley
Thomas Collyer b. 1816, Mursley. Married Elizabeth ? b. 1821, Little Horwood
Eliza Ann Collyer b. 1851, Mursley
Emma Collyer b. 1854, Mursley
George Collyer b. 1857, Mursley. Married Eliza J Green, b. 1859, Cublington
George James Collyer b. 1878, Mursley. Married Ellen Turner b. 1880, Bushey
Eliza E Collyer b. 1881, Mursley. Married Ted Caryl
Arthur Collyer b. 1882, Mursley. Married Rose ?
Herbert C Collyer b. 1886, Mursley. Married Kate Bliss, then Alice?
Sidney Collyer b. 1889, Mursley. d. 1910 aged 21
Rose L Collyer b. 1896, Bushey. Married William Catton
Have tracked the family via census returns. I know they moved to Watford by the time the 1901 census was taken. Would love to hear from anyone who may have come across them or may have any connections. :)

Hi
I dont know anything about this family but I grew up in Mursley and am still going back quite a bit so if I can be of any help let me know. There was a couple called Collyer-Wright in the village when I was a child in the 1980s but I dont know if they were from Mursley or not.

Thanks for your email and your kind offer. It was quite a surprise to find my husbands family originated from Mursley as we have lived down the road for nearly 20 years! We have visited a couple of times to check one or two things out but we are still researching, particularly interested in Thomas and Elizabeth Collyer. Thanks again. Regards Anne :)
