Down memory lane with the village people

Lost village clubs over the years listed below

How many village clubs are no longer in existence. You may be puzzled that some Village teams ever had a side but I have logged more than 50 such teams below who sadly no longer exist or are now in other Leagues. Some of these names will surprise you but anyone who has interesting cuttings or historic data on these teams feel free to email or send me info if you feel so inclined. I would especially like some League tables from prewar if anyone knows any.
