The Pengellys were tenants of Thomas Taylor who moved to Court End, Alvington. His widow inherited Sandford House at Aylburton after his death in 1905. Annie (Lawrence) Taylor of Myrtle Cottage, Alvington left Sandford House, Aylburton to her daughter Jane Mills at her death in 1937. Jane had tha Archaeologist Scott-Garrett and family at Sandford until her death at Aylburton in 1958. The House then passedTo Pat and Sandy Wickson who moved into Sandford House in 1961. The Wickson’s sold Sandford House in 1979 after 100 years + of family ownership (Taylor-Mills-Wickson).
A footnote. The Forest of Dean History Society has a ‘ScottGarrett annual prize ‘ for FOD research.Nobody with the name of Wickson is allowed to receive this prize owing to SG’s removal from his tenancy at Sandford in 1961. He moved to a retirement home in Ross on Wye. Wickson (RAF Officer) had needed a home for his wife and children and exercised his right as owner to move SG on from his tenancy.
