You probably have this already but I saw a book for sale on Ebay (yesterday I think) on the Tolpuddle Martyrs with the author named as a Loveless from memory. Marion

My cousin (x times) was James Hammett TPM. Welcome hearing from anyone who is also a Tolpuddle Hammett.

Don't forget the Dorset Machine Breakers of 1830. There is a very good book written by Jill Chambers which tells the story of the 1830 riots ISBN 1-903049-02-4
The autumn and winter of 1830/1831 saw some of the worst ever disturbances in rural England. The trouble started in Kent and quickly spread to other counties in Southern England including Dorset.
A special Commission was held at Dorchester in January 1830 which reesulted in the imprisonment of a number of men and the transportation of some of them to Australia.
The book gives details of the men who were tried for machine breaking and arson during 1831. Deatils include the offence, sentence, description of the men, and in many cases family details.

I have a copy of the book. I bought my book sometime ago direct from the author Jill Chambers, email:Jillchmbrs@aol.com
http//ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Jill_M_Chambers
I haven't checked the above email address or web site to see if it is still in operation.
I have looked in the index but no Trowbridges in it.

Thanks for looking for me I'll try the library instead of forking out lots of £££ !!
The link doesn't work, by the way ...
... it gives this message:-

Don't forget the Tolpuddle Martyrs Museum has a vast stock of books, and they do mail order too. Would that book be Tolpuddle - an historial account through the eyes of George Loveless?
