Oxfordshire / Re: Townsends of Chadlington....suggestions...?

Hello Chris and thanks for the reply. Still trying to get my new computer working smoothly so my response is a little tardy.
My father was Alfred of Herbert's three sons. He had four children, Dale, Gary, Velda and Derek. We all reside in British Columbia, Canada. Most of our children and grandchildren also live here as well.
I didn't know I had a great uncle, Alfred, or that his son, Newton, lived in Canada. My knowledge of the family line is limited to knowing that Herbert and Annie came over from Chadlington in the early 1900's and doesn't include their siblings.
Alfred was born in Victoria, BC, the only Canadian born child of Herbert. He spent most of his life there as did his brother, Frank. Arthur moved around and resided in Prince George for a long time.
Any information about about Herbert's or Annie's families would be appreciated.
Thanks and nice to know we have more relatives out there.
Derek

Hi Chris
I have started to research the Townsend family back to Chadlington. My Grandfather, Herbert Townsend, left for Canada in 1910 from his birthplace of Chadlington.
Could you possibly give me some leads to follow so that I can dig a bit farther back?
Many thanks,
Derek Townsend
