[Tugford]

1) James Tagford b. 1788 Chilton Polden, labourer, bur. 1 May 1858 (Jun Q 5c/395 Wells - Tugford) Butleigh 41W-18, 51W-41

This couple lived in Garden Allottments, Butleigh Wootton in 1841 and '51. Prudence, previously married to John Larcombe who died in 1813, died in 1854 and James in 1858. Prudence was described as an invalid and had a nurse, Mary Welshman, in attendance in 1851. An Elizabeth Tagford (relation of James?) married George Turner in Butleigh on 6 Apr 1812.

Taghill

(Toghill – Tagwell, Tarzewell)

1) John Tugwell died 1708?

John is mentioned in the churchwarden's accounts as killing a hedgehog in 1698. He paid rates from 1696 to 1706. He was followed by Richard who paid rates in 1707 and '08 then John again from 1709-12 then Richard from 1713-52. The above reconstruction is speculative and if correct then Richard that follows must have been the son of one or other children of John.

1a) Richard Tagwell/Toghill bur. 2 Dec 1752 Butleigh

Richard was churchwarden in 1711. He paid rates from 1713 in succession to John and up to 1752 when he was replaced by the widow Toghill and next door were Thomas Hodges and Richard Toghill Hodges. This suggests that the son Richard who died in 1744 was an only child and that the heir was Richard Toghill Hodges – presumably a nephew [if Mary had been a Hodges]. Widow Toghill paid the rates until her death in 1763. Richard Toghill Hodges went to live in Isleworth, Middlesex and exchanged land with James Grenville. In 1728 the OOP noted 'Added to theis account by the directions of the justices of the peace whose hands are hereunto subscribed for the use of Richard Toghill the sum of 9s 2d'.

By 1861 James Talbott (33) with his wife Hannah (32) and William (11), Henry (6), Mary A. (4) and Ellen E. (2) lived in Water Lane in Butleigh. Henry was absent from 1861 and may have died.

He owned a stables at 18, Westbourne Place, Aldington, Lewes, Sussex. Hannah snr must have died before 1901 but the only registered death that fits, in 1898 (Sep Q 6a/451 Newport S, Shropshire), for a Hannah Talbot aged 70, needs proving.

Frederick Charles married Beatrice Mildred Smith in 1902 (Sep Q 2a/642 Croydon) and in 1911 he was a cab driver and they lived at 16, Marmion Rd., Hove. Martha was a mother's help to her sister Eliza Wilson still at 18, Westbourne Place.
