Hi,

I would have thought it unlikely to have phone numbers in newspapers.  The number for Charlotte seems to appear in an article from a newspaper in 1876.

Nanny Jan

So with that year highly unlikely to be phone numbers although that is what it looks like, certainly with Whetston, Markfield and Seagrave all Leicestershire locations it is likely to be  a locational thing
Leicestershire:Chamberlain, Dakin, Wilkinson, Moss, Cook, Welland, Dobson, Roper,Palfreman, Squires, Hames, Goddard, Topliss, Twells,Bacon.
Northamps:Sykes, Harris, Rice,Knowles.
Rutland:Clements, Dalby, Osbourne, Durance, Smith,Christian, Royce, Richardson,Oakham, Dewey,Newbold,Cox,Chamberlaine,Brow, Cooper, Bloodworth,Clarke
Durham/Yorks:Woodend, Watson,Parker, Dowser
Suffolk/Norfolk:Groom, Coleman, Kemp, Barnard, Alden,Blomfield,Smith,Howes,Knight,Kett,Fryston
Lincolnshire:Clements, Woodend

Some of the numbers are against the wrong people, who are in a list of Land Owners

In the case of Charles Cooper of Markfield it is 4 0 9   8 5

4 0 9 is the extent of his land, possibly acres chains and yards, and 8 5 is the estimated rental, which is probably in pounds and shillings because none of the second figures in the list exceed 19.

David

P.S. The area is in Acres, Roods and Perches and the value is in pounds and shillings

1 acre = 4 Roods

1 rood = 40 perches

1 perch = 30 sq yards (approx)
