If you have old photographs, documents or memories relating to Thorpe Mandeville, I would be delighted to hear from you.

Apart from the current registers, all the parish registers can be examined at Northamptonshire Record Office, Wootton Hall Park, Northampton, NN4 9BQ. However, I hold extensive transcriptions of the registers and other public records. If you have enquiries regarding former parishioners, I will be pleased to see if I can help:

Information on this website includes extracts from my book on the social history of Thorpe Mandeville, published in 1996, which recognises the assistance of many parishioners and historians it has not been possible to acknowledge here.

The book gives a comprehensive account of the parish from the Domesday Book to the late 20th century (119 pages including 10 pages of black and white photographs and maps). Copies of the book can be obtained from me at:
