Gazetteers

• The transcription of the section for Ampney Crucis from the National Gazetteer (1868) provided by Colin Hinson.

History

• I found it difficult to decide which of our subject headings to include the Ampney Crucis Village Website under, but I have settled on History, as the Historical Interest section will be of immediate interest to genealogists. It includes Ampney's mention in the Domesday Book, a Guide to the Church (with some superb photographs), a list of Vicars, and more, with church record and burial information promised at a future date.

  This is a very atttractive and well-presented site; be sure to bookmark it for future visits!
