Have you seen the one below - St Nicholas - the first two letters of Hell look ever so like the St

I think it says 'All St' (ie All Saints) not 'He St'. It's where he was in 1841 (HO107/433).

I've just got onto Ancestry ... what no-one has noticed is that the page is part of the Gloucestershire census ... 'He  ll' is his place of birth, and I think its merely some sort of poorly written abbreviation for Herefordshire.

I often use Hfd for both the city and the county ...  could this entry not be 'Hereford He ds' short for the county name ?

Added - it does say Hereford 'Hell', Lydart

I think it says 'All St' (ie All Saints) not 'He St'. It's where he was in 1841 (HO107/433).

I think Richard looks as though he may have hit the nail on the head ..

I'm still not convinced that All Saints was his place of birth ... All Saints is the name of the church in the centre of Hereford (I have a superb vegetarian lunch there once a fortnight !) ... but the road, and the area of Hereford the church is in, is Eign Gate ...

I agree with Richard.

Remember that people were supposed to record which parish they came from & All Saints was (according to Genuki) the most populous parish in Hereford.

I bow to your superior knowledge, AR.      Undecided

I hadnt realised people had to record their baptism parish, rather than the actual place of birth ...


Pels .. thats why he was baptised in ALL Saints !!

Well, what can I say? Nothing is the answer, I am too overwhelmed by the responses of you all.

I first started wondering about "Hell" over 10 months ago and in less than a week I have discovered that it was All Saint's all along and that the kindness ansd support of strangers knows no bounds.

Reading all your correspondance I have not only learned lot but I have been very impressed by the way Pels managed to include an image of my problem, I haven't worked out how to do that yet!

Thank you all once again.

Helen
