Bosley Family

Sun 26th Apr 2009 | by Nick
Dear Sir, I wonder if you can help me in any way, I am tracing my family tree and I have gone back to about 1800 my ancestors were all born lived and died in Thatcham but I cannot find any graves of my ancestors though I did find 2 on the Thatcham war memorial. Is there any way you could point me in the right direction. Many Thanks Paul Bosley

Although not related to the Bosley family I am currently researching this family because of their connection with Beedon. We have 8 members listed as killed in action on our memorial boards and stone. The two Thatcham males are Herbert John and Fredrick. If you can throw any light on the Bosley family members of Worlds End, Beedon, Stanmore, Bucklebury, Leckhampstead and Bothampstead I would be grateful.
