I can't claim any credit in finding this either - but with myroots attracting a number of fellow researchers/relations, it seems churlish not to disseminate our collective findings more widely.  I was very interested to read the origins of the name Ephgrave at a link sent by another distant relation to a description of Ephgrave's origins at surname database . 

Interesting to note the connection to Hertfordshire, where 'my' Ephgraves come from.

Greetings from Canada:

I have a family tree of Ephgrave's going back to 1434 in Hertfordshire. I am really intersted in pushing further back in time and also knowing the origin of the family tree.

Can you help?

I don't know anything about blogs. Sounds like blokes. I guess I'm giving my age away.

Cheers, Ed Ephgrave, Vancouver Island, Canada.

my great,great, grandfater was a John Ephgrave who built a Westleyan Chappel at Ayot Green in Hertfordshire about 1822. He married Sophia Westwood in London, 1809, and later married Eliz, Lawrence at Ayot in 1829. John`s father was Thomas Ephgrave of Lower Hanside Farm, Wlwyn. Anybody out there who can add info. on this branch of Ephgraves ??
