It is a common fallacy, that seems to be implied in this article, that the Cheynes (such as the unfeasibly long-lived Thomas Cheyne) gave their name to Chenies (the place). In actual fact it derives from the earlier and unrelated holders of the 12th - 13th centuries, the Cheney family. However the Cheynes did give their name to Cheyne walk in Chelsea.

Can you quote references for this please? The Victorian History of the County of Buckinghamshire by Lipscombe agrees with the article, as does the Magna Britannica. -- Francs2000 | Talk [[]] 16:28, 6 May 2005 (UTC)Reply

If it's a genuine local government division, it can't be in two counties. I suspect it's in Buckinghamshire and it borders on Hertfordshire. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.189.103.145 (talk) 12:58, 3 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
