The Rev W S Wickenden in Middx 1851 born Etloe, was sponsored by Dr Jenner to go to Cambridge, where he obtained an degree. Dr Jenner named him Bard of the Forest, and The Rev's books are in the British Library and Gloucestershire Reference Library - some autobiographical which make interesting reading.

His great nephew, (my great grandfather) William Wickenden is living at Nibley Mill 1901 - and I've just sent a copy of Sales Particulars of Nibley Mill c1912 to this site - The Cottage next door where his Son-in-law is called Pound Cottage on this Poster.

Hope this helps.
