You could always contact the Buckinghamshire FHS for a search. I have always found them very helpful.

I am also descended from Matthew and Elizabeth. Their son Joseph married Sarah Forrest 1758 Wendover, and I am descended from their son Silvester b 1763.

I have not been able to get any further back either (despite looking at the parish records on microfilm - the early entries are very hard to read)

However, I have as possible relations to Matthew, found in the Wendover parish registers:

Henry Dancer born about 1653 Wendover married Ann Wright at Wendover in 1677

James Dancer married Adery Welch (1640-1685). They married Wendover 20 Oct 1670. Children:

Thomas 1671
Sara 1673
Mary (died 1685)

So there are somemore possiblelines of enquiry there if descendants of these can be found

I think there is only one church in Wendover, St Mary's.
There is a tiny place called Dancers End east of Wendover but I don't know the history of the name

I am also related to Matthew Dancer and Elizabeth Sherwood if anyone has any info to share on either of these two i would greatly appreciate it.

I have it listed that Mathew's father is Joesph Dancer who is married to Dorcas Stevens (who is on a royal lineage).

But i can't for the life of me see how people have married Joesph to Dorcas, i have posted on another post asking for help with that problem.

Hope we can discover lots together!
