Hurley

My parents met in Hurley at the church; my father lived at Rosehill which was a large estate nearby where his father was Head Gardener. My mother was nanny to the children of the Rector of Hurley, and had travelled to various places around the country looking after their children. She was very fond of the Rector and his wife, and I took my parents to visit them in the West Country after his retirement in the 1960s.

We took my parents to Hurley for a nostalgic visit in about 1980 which we all enjoyed. It's a lovely part of the country, and having delved into family history I'm pleased to discover more about my Oxfordshire roots.
