The Childs Family

On the attached pages, you will find our complete family history, dating back to the 1600's

Our ancestry has been traced back to the 1600's to Richard, the father of Hugh Childs and Mary Hicks, farmers from Courtenay, Berkshire, England. Our family has its roots deeply imbedded in agriculture, a tradition carried on today by several of Hugh's great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandchildren. Courtney, or Sutton Courtenay is is known today, is a small village in the county of Oxfordshire, located in Soutch East England.
