Two families are of particular importance to the village, being Lords of the Manor and major benefactors to the people.

The Mordaunt family were the Earls of Peterborough and are buried in Turvey Church.

The Higgins family almost completely rebuilt Turvey in the 19th Century.

I will add pages for as many multiple generation names as I can as soon as I can! If the name is underlined, click on it - it is a link!

Please remember that spellings varied greatly in days gone - if the name you want is not here double check the spelling if you can - they have been lumped together here. These are all names which appear three or more times in the parish registers.
