Hmm, yes that looks rather interesting ...

How common a name is Samuel Dorrington in Hertfordshire at this time?

Hello Aulus,

I have certainly never come across the name Dorrington in Hertfordshire. I live very near to Watton at Stone.

Thanks.

Probably safe to claim the one discovered by Peter as mine!

Good idea Aulus.

Peter will probably have a better idea than me as to its occurrence in Hertfordshire.

Hi Aulus

Just a bit of background.

Not a particularly common name in East Herts even now, although one family were friends of my parents, plus there is the Bakers in the Herts/Essex area with shops in Bishops Stortford, Sawbridgeworth, Harlow, Dunmow, Saffron Walden and others.

The 1851 census lists 5 Samuel Dorringtons with Hertfordshire connections, although I think that should be 4 as it looks like the Watton one is listed twice.

Regards

Anthony
