Title: Sevenhampton Wood family
Post by: Yogiyo1 on Wednesday 13 April 11 23:57 BST (UK)
Hi,

Looking for anyone with links to the Wood family from Sevenhampton.

My Wood line goes back to c.1745.

Other names linked to the Woods & Sevenhampton: Barnfield, Ruck, Andrews

Thanks very much
Johanna

Hi Johanna - welcome to the Gloucestershire board!  :)

Can I suggest you go up to the top of the board and click on SURNAMES then enter your surname interests there?  This is the Surname Interest Table and it's an easy way to contact those who share your interests.

I have a link to BARNFIELD in the Wotton under Edge area - Mary BARNFIELD married a German named BAUMGURTEL en route to Australia and had a whole heap of children there before dying of a prolapsed womb, poor woman!  Her father rejoiced in the name of Boaz BARNFIELD!

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

Hi,
Have a look at www.herberthistory.co.uk/pages/9.htm click ‘The Wood Family’, then ‘Wood Family Tree’.  These Woods all came from Cirencester, but I’ve always had a feeling that they came there from a smaller place around Gloucestershire and only stayed for a couple of generations on their way to London.

Have you come across The Cirencester Society in London? www.csil.org.uk Look at ‘Archive List of Dinners, which is really a meetings summary all the way back to about 1700. Search for 'wood' using 'Control F' function.
