I am the Great, Great Grandson of Dr. Philip Wynter Wagstaff.
I was advised by my Late Father William Wynter Wagstaff (1908-1977), that my name Leighton was given to me and to at least one Wagstaff Son of every generation so that we would know the Family came from Leighton Buzzard.
I would greatly appreciate any other descendants, direct or indirect to please contact me.
I live in Canberra, Australia

Hi Cecil
Thank you for this fabulous information – I actually grew up in Leighton Buzzard and went to school there, so this is a great connection to me. It is a really lovely English market town, supposedly named after a Roman Legion…
