Mike Hagger
Mike was born in 1944 to the sound of doodlebugs droning overhead. He is married to Gill. They have no issue.
His father was Peter Charles Richards Hagger (1916-1991), and the line comes through from Lavender Hagger (1767-1853) and Elizabeth Field (1776-1837), who lived their lives in Therfield and Kelshall. Lavender was a Dissenter. Much of Mike’s tree is on the web site www.hagger.org - this site is owned by Martin Hagger.
Mike is a native of Barnet in North London, but he and Gill have lived for over 30 years in Twickenham. They are nicely placed for easy access to the rugby ground and to a most beautiful part of the River Thames.
Time is at a premium as Mike works full time for the British Cables Association as their Technical Secretary; a job that frequently takes him overseas. Gill looks forward to his retirement, but swears that when it eventually arrives there is little chance that his disorderly Family History papers will get any tidier.
Family History research has occupied Mike, on and off, for the best part of 25-30 years, and he looks today at the Internet and marvels at how much he achieved in those long-off days of dusty offices and pencil and paper. His greatest triumph was to find that the family jokes about “De Quincey” had a basis in reality and a direct place in his Hagger line.
As well as Family History and rugby, he follows cricket, venerates the steam locomotive, likes fine wine and malt whisky (or is it “likes the steam locomotive, and venerates fine wine and malt whisky”?), gives local history tours to friends, and avoids gardening.
