Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I've yet to visit Netherbury where my Tolley ancestors were based. I'm interested to hear about the Tolley family shoemaker who moved to Surrey sometime in the 70's/80's. They lived in a part of Netherbury named Braddicks. My earliest connection with Dorset was hearing my father, George Tolley, sing what is presumably a rather bawdy Dorset folksong - Old John Braddl'em!

I am searching for my ancestors from Netherbury the family names are Toogood, Tolley, Spraklen, Meech, Clarke, Hoskens, Maish, Cox. These are names going back to the early 1700. Netherbury has held my interest since I was a child and at last I am going to be able to see it for myself armed with the names of my ancestors. It would be so very good to know if anyone living in Netherbury is able to help with my search.
