Thanks for the info about the Tranters of Wycombe ,I have a full family tree going back to about 1700.

George Tranter was the son of Henry Tranter (1834) & Catherine Barlow.

Then Thomas Tranter(1797)&Susanna Rixon,

Richard Tranter(1767)&Elizabeth Pearce,

Edward Tranter(1727)&Mary Austin, all born in and around Stokenchurch.

Tranters I have found in the Great War are my Grand father Albert,Wilfred Tranter(1895)no 2467 the hampshire reg.
