Description

Canon Pyon, a Herefordshire manor and parish, has a rich and relatively stable history spanning centuries. However, the 17th century brought significant changes that affected the community. This book explores the lives of the people living in the manor and parish, using surviving documentary evidence to piece together their stories.

From the court case that revealed a heart-warming love story to the tumult of the Civil Wars, the parish's history is marked by fluctuating attitudes and fortunes. Despite the challenges, many families in Canon Pyon had been there for generations and continued to thrive. This book aims to uncover the lives of those who lived in the manor and parish, shedding light on their experiences and stories.
