More about this scene
The view down the High Street has changed very little, but the increased volume of traffic has brought traffic lights to the junction with the road to Over. A barber's shop has replaced the radio shop on the left, and the Willingham Auction Rooms now occupy the adjoining building.

Hi everyone, does anyone know if there are any early graves in Buntisham? I am talking of 1600 -1700 up till 1800, the name Lack. I know of quite a few in Willingham church, but also have details of births and deaths in Bluntisham and Longstanton. I am a desendent of the Lacks, most of them were carpenters, as was my great grandfather, Benjamin Lack, born 1833 Willingham, father Joseph, mother Mary Crisp. They go back to early 1600. Best wishes to all, Pat Mason.
My nan was born a Hayden in London, her father Levi and his ancestors go back in the village to the 1500s. Nan and grandad - Emma and Henry (Harry) Welsh - lived at Ivy Cottage, 30 Church Street in their twilight years and are buried in the churchyard. Nan once said she was related to the whole village. I am researching the family tree, and I must admit that many family lines do entwine!
Hello again. I don`t know when Grandad Lack was born. I have no contakt with any of the Lack family because my mother remarried after my father Eric Lack died. Let me know if you find a link between the Lacks Anna Stearn
My great great grandfather was born in Willingham, his name was Joseph Lack. Many of my family are buried in the churchyard. I have not been to Willingham yet but hope to do so in the near future.

It was nice to see someone ...see more
