Towersey

Towersey is a village and civil parish about east of Thame in Oxfordshire. Towersey was part of Buckinghamshire until 1933, when the county boundary was moved and Towersey was exchanged for Kingsey. The 2011 Census recorded Towersey parish's population as 433.
==Toponym==
The toponym "Towersey" is derived from Old and Middle English. The Domesday Book of 1086 records it as simply ''Eia'', meaning "island". This refers to a dry area of land in the marshes of the Aylesbury Vale, on the edge of which the village stands.
A manuscript of 1174 records Kingsey also as simply ''Eya'', but thereafter both toponyms gained prefixes to distinguish the two villages. A manuscript of 1194 refers to ''Kingseie'', which has evolved into "Kingsey". Mid-13th-century records refer to ''Turrisey'' and ''Tureseye'', which has evolved into "Towersey". It means "island of de Turs", referring to Richard de Turs, who held the manor from 1252.
