Can anybody help I,m trying to trace my family origins, my uncle some years ago tracked the family name down to the west country I never saw any paper work on it. I can only go back to where my father was born in Holborn Bloomsbury London..

Hi, there is a place called 'Toghill' near Bath in the West Country. If you search the web you can find information out about Toghill House which is a B&B in the area. I think it used to be a farm. I have no idea of how many Toghill's there are outside of the UK?!?

Toghill the small hamlet above Bath was the source of all the Toghill branches,there are records of Toghills going back to the13th century of the family ,in the whole area, I am the descendant of a Mary Toghill who lived at lower Hamswell at the bottom of Toghill. Dyrham ,Abson,Batheaston and the Landsdown area of Bath were the places that they spread out to. Westbury and Eddington in Wiltshire are other places. They were all farmers and worked the area around Toghill and Bath there are still quite a few Toghills in the area all coming from the original area,even the Toghills that were living in london in the 1800's.I have some more information if you wish to contact me.

Hi Dave, I'm interested to know who you are related to and where you live. As you can see I share your name. I'm 53 and I live in Northamptonshire England.

Hello Dave I live in Broughton Astley South Leicestershire, I have been researching the Toghill Family for some years now as my mother was a descendant. There was a woman called Rosa who lived in Northamptonshire who was interested in the Toghills some years ago, are you related ? The Toghills all derive from Toghill above Bath,there was a branch in Wiltshire too but they were all related, much to tell you, give me a call on 01455 284312.

Hello Emma, I have been tracing the Toghill family for some years now as my mother was a descendant from this family. All Toghill branches stem from a place called Toghill just above Bath.
