Buckinghamshire / Re: Mead, Meade and Mede, 1600 and before
« on: Saturday 23 January 16 23:27 GMT (UK) »You couldn't swing a dead cat in Buckinghamshire without hitting a few Meads. I have collected a lot of information about them from wills, parish records, Common Pleas rolls, etc, particularly from before 1600 and going back to before 1500. Where wills and parish records are available, I have been able to connect them over several generations.
I am especially interested in Meads in Saunderton/Horsenden, Soulbury, Stewkley, Wing, Whitchurch and East Claydon. I also have quite a lot of information about individuals in other parishes, but can't connect them across generations.
If anyone is working on the Mead family in Bucks before about 1650, I'd be glad to hear from you. I'd be happy to share what I've found and meet others working in the same area.
Hi Vance - I'm a descendant of Rev. Matthew Mead, the dissenting minister and father of Dr. Richard Mead. I've also done a lot of research on the family and would be happy to pool resources. Thanks
