More about this scene

The Anglo-Saxons almost certainly fortified Wallingford, and there was once an important castle here, though little of it survives today. The town was the last Royalist stronghold to surrender during the Civil War. At one time Wallingford had 16 churches.

John Hayward (1813) came from Loders in Dorset and settled in this area  of Wallingford, of Benson, Bradfield, Englefield and married local girl Mary Anne Kitchen.  His son Robert James eventually farmed Uxmore Farm at Ipsden, near Stoke Row in Berks/Oxon.  I am collecting a photographic record of the Hayward family in these areas for a family tree.
