I am currently reading “Thames Valley Papists” and can hardly put it down. I live in Seattle, Washington but I was born in London in 1939 and grew up in Oxfordshire before my family emigrated to Canada in 1951. My grandmother’s family lived in the Shirburn area going back to the 1600’s. My grandfather’s family was from Little Marlow, Buckinghamshire. Before we left for Canada, my brother and I attended Stonor School, probably in 1948 or 1949, and then I attended Sacred Heart School in Henley-on-Thames. We were Roman Catholic through our father, who was Irish. Thank you for this wonderful, informative, easy-to-read book.
Hi Patricia,
Thanks very much for your kind words. I’m delighted you are enjoying the book and thank you for taking the trouble to write.
Al the best,
Tony
Hello Mr Hadland – I came across your site looking for information on Our Lady of Caversham and I have added a link to your site from mine. Hope that is OK – I was very impressed with your research. Regards Claire
