Hi, Astwood,
I was interested on your remark about the 'books about Inkberrow' Could you let me know the titles of these books. My family, the Phillips were residents in Inkberrow in 17th century. I doubt that they would be mentioned but I am still interested.

Hi, Astwood,
Thank you for your reply re Inkberrow books. I would be very interested in knowing if they are still imprint. Gather all the infro for all quarters!! If you do have time, I would be grateful if you could have a look for the Phillips tribe. They were ag. labs., so they may have moved about a bit. Many thanks.

Hi Astwood,
Thank you so much for taking the trouble to scan through the books on Inkberrow. I did have an ancestor, John Phillips who was married to Mary at that time, so that's 'another string to my bow!!'
I have never been to Inkberrow but, hopefully, we will be staying at Broadway for a couple of weeks in September so that will give me the opportunity to see the village. I will make enquires re. the books.
Many thanks once again
RobPhill.

Hi Rob,

I think I may have a connection with the Phillips of Inkberrow. My great great grandfather married Eliza Phillips who was born in 1832 in Inkberrow, her parents were John Phillips born in1804 and Ann Phillips. My great, great grandfather was called Fergus Felix Boyce born in 1841 and he married Eliza in 1861. They had three children Agnes, Albert and Selina. John Phillips and a niece called Ann E Phillips lived with Eliza and Fergus on Evesham Road, Astwood Bank.  Eliza died and Fergus married a lady called Lizzie Shrimpton in 1899.
