Descendants of Sampson Toovey and Katherine Shrimpton of Amersham
DESCENDANTS OF SAMPSON TOOVEY AND KATHERINE SHRIMPTON OF AMERSHAM January 2017, revised August 2017 1 PREFACE This research was undertaken at the request of the Curator of Amersham Museum, Emily Toettcher, who wanted information about the Toovey family members who had lived in the building that now houses the museum. It was very soon apparent that much investigation had already been carried out. The trigger- factor was probably the death of Ronald Frank Toovey on 14 August 1980 in Wycombe Hospital. He was the last survivor of the four children of Frederick Samson Toovey and Sarah Ann Clare. He was unmarried, childless and intestate and, although his solicitors twice attended to try to get a Will drawn, it was too late. The solicitors commissioned a genealogist to act as heir hunter and eventually heirs were identified and the estate distributed. This seems to have generated interest in their ancestry among the descendants of Ronald Frank’s grandfather Henry Toovey (1822-1910). At that time there was considerable interest also in exploring the capabilities of computers for storing and analysing genealogical data. The Toovey family featured in an article in Computers in Genealogy in March 1993 1. In 1995 Richard Boyles wrote Toovey’s in Amersham, My Family History and kindly presented a copy to Amersham Museum. While carrying out this research he became aware of Dr DW Jopling who two years later would publish The Descendants of Toovey of Watlington, born ca 1540. A copy of this, accompanied by a roll pedigree, is in the Library of the Society of Genealogists in London. -

Appendix 4: Proposed Community Boards Geographies
Appendix 4: Proposed Community Boards Geographies The purpose of this paper is to set out an overview of the key issues considered in developing a revised map and boundaries of community boards in response to consultation feedback. The detail of the proposed map and boundaries can be seen in the accompanying appendices to the Shadow Executive report – Appendices 5 & 6. This report should be read in conjunction to those reports. Consultation proposal A key part of the formal consultation was seeking views on all options for the number of community boards, from 0 to 19 plus. Prior to the formal consultation engagement workshops took place with town and parish councils in June 2019. A key discussion topic at those meetings was the possible geographies which informed the consultation proposals. A preferred option of 14 community boards was identified as the option for consultation, with other potential options and maps published of 11, 12, 14 and 19 community board areas. The map of 14 community boards was developed with town and parish council boundaries as the basic building block. Appendix 1 sets out the results and feedback from the consultation including the overall number of community boards and their geographies. Proposed Consultation Response As a result of the consultation feedback, it is recommended that 16 rather than 14 community boards are set-up with revised boundaries. The key feedback taken into account in suggesting these revised boundaries are: Taking into account community views from residents, local groups and the respective town and parish councils. Minimising the differences between the boundaries of the Primary Care Networks and the community boards where this makes sense to do so. -

The Site lay on the edge of a dispersed Bronze Age barrow cemetery, and a Scheduled Bronze Age bowl barrow (SM 27122) lay within the limits of the Site itself. Following a watching brief undertaken during geotechnical works, an archaeological evaluation was required by the Buckinghamshire County Archaeologist to provide further information regarding the archaeological potential and inform the need for further mitigation measures on the Site. Evaluation trenches were targeted at the two least disturbed areas; to the west and east of a terraced area containing the former Molins Works. Of the twenty-four trial trenches proposed, two could not be opened and a further twelve were repositioned due to the presence of live services (electric, water and gas) on the Site. Within Area 1, at the western extent of the Site, made ground deposits were present which overlay possible redeposited subsoil or topsoil layers. -
