  • SKIDMORES of RURAL WARWICKSHIRE.Pdf
    Skidmore & Skidsmore Families of rural Warwickshire Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study SKIDMORE AND SKIDSMORE FAMILIES OF RURAL WARWICKSHIRE 1550-1915 Minor amendments were last made to by Linda Moffatt © 2012 this account by Linda Moffatt on 24 July 2016. It has been my privilege to add to the account by Warren Skidmore of the first 150 years of this family in Warwickshire, from its probable origins in Siddington Langley, Gloucestershire in the early 16th century (a family itself out of the ancient family at Holme Lacy, Herefordshire). He lends to the history of this family, as to others, his considerable knowledge and experience of interpreting records of the 12th-16th centuries and applying them to family history. Over many years' work he has tried, and in large succeeded, in tracking the movement of individuals before 1650 out of Herefordshire and Somerset to other parts of Britain and to the US. Warren Skidmore's work on this branch of the wider Skidmore/Scudamore family can be found on the website www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com as an occasional paper with the title The Skydmores in the Environs of Stratford-On-Avon, Warks. Much of Generations 1-5 below are based heavily on this paper. For my part, I have taken the story from the 18th into the early 20th century, with the census of 1911 as my end point. I have not included any detail beyond 1915 to preserve the privacy of living descendants. If you would like to include your 20th century family in this account, please contact me via [email protected] (LM).
