My great grandmother was Emma Tokley, born 1874. Her parents were Arthur Tokley, born 1854 and Elizabeth Walsh, born 1855. His parents were Charles Tokley, born 1832 and Maria Cresswell, born 1834. All these Tokleys were born in Bures. My earliest Tokley is John, born in Lamarsh 1740.
In the 1861 census, the very last schedule was for a blacksmith, James Sawyer. Next door were Maria’s parents, Mark Cresswell and Sarah Banbridge. Next door to them were Charles Tokley and Maria. I have no information about my family in Bures, except for the official records. Is it possible to identify where they were living? Would there be any later photographs of their houses? Are there any photographs of these families? I would be grateful for any information.
