    • PERSONALIA and MEMORABILIA

      SIXTY years OF marriage:
      Our senior Church members, Mr and Mrs Featherstone, of Aylward Road, recently celebrated their Diamond Wedding. Baptised at Queen's Road, married at Queen's Road, all their lives they have spent in our fellowship. Their children were brought up among us, and all are in some form of Christian service, and now the third generation is serving likewise. Mrs Featherstone is a daughter of the Wood family, a well-remembered family of Queen's Road from earliest days, and is a sister of Mrs Johnson and Mrs Bungard. We send our heartiest congratulations to our dear and honoured friends, and wish them in the grace of God, yet many more years of happiness together.

      From Roadmaker December 1958 (the magazine of Wimbledon Baptist Church)

      From Aunty Clarice
      I'm sorry I don't have a photograph of my parent's wedding. In fact I should be surprised if there are any. Firstly there were not very many pictures taken as long ago as that. Also I have the impression that they lived on quite a tight budget and photographs would have been an unnecessary luxury.

Our Names

The spelling of the name Featherstone has varied over the centuries, with additions and subtractions. Here is the list that we have registered with the Guild Of One Named Studies.

Featherstone, Featherston, Fetherstone, Fetherston, Featherstonhalgh, Featherstonehaugh, Featherstonhaugh, Fetherstonehaugh, Fetherstonhaugh.

We have examples from the Birth, Marriage and Death indexes where people were registered at birth with the final 'e' missing and were married with the final 'e' in the surname. The 'haugh' is more difficult to prove, but people have suddenly adopted it for no apparent reason, although we have instances where people adopted the name, usually when money was involved.
