The one we call the "Cardington Group" has as its common ancestors Philip Preen and his wife Mary who lived in Hope Bowdler in the second half of the seventeenth century. Some of their descendants moved to Cardington in the late eighteenth century and their story has been told in "The Preens of Cardington Part One". This traces them to James and Priscilla Preen who died in 1911 and discusses some of their children. Three of the children who remained in Cardington are described in this book. They are Elizabeth (1854-1923), Edwin (1859-1936) and Albert (1871-1955) and their families. In 2011, The Preen Family Reunion was again held in Cardington and this booklet remembers them.
