I have the CD for St Mary, Old Swinford but there is no MI for Thomas Foley of Witley. 

Within the MI pages there is a heading Section I Interior.  Then numbered 57 is 'List of Rectors & Patrons of Old Swinford'.  There are three columns, Rector, Year & Patron.  The entries featuring Thomas are as follows:

Edward Eccleston 1673 Thomas Foley of Witley
Simon Ford D.D. 1676 Thomas Foley of Witley
William Halifax D.D. 1699 Thomas Foley of Witley

Many thanks Jomot, that explains the 1676 reference.

Hi Jomot,
My name is Paul Wooldridge. My family is originally from Oldswinford. Would you be prepared to sell me a copy of your CD of St Mary's Oldswinford memorial inscriptions? Or maybe you could tell me where I could get one from?
Many thanks
Paul Wooldridge

Hi Paul

The CD is from BMSGH (now renamed Midland Ancestors), but is quite difficult to navigate.

I've just checked their pages and they still have the CD for sale, and they also now have downloadable files.
