Hampshire Connections with Coventry?
« on: Friday 10 June 05 22:15 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know if there was historically any connection with the East Meon/Kingsclere/Tadley area and Coventry? :)  My ancestors were fellmongers in Coventry from the late 18th century but I have a hunch they originally came from Hampshire and Berkshire as this is where all the earlier Anglisses are located.  I wondered if there was a business reason for the move to Coventry (if this is the case obviously) perhaps to do with trade in wool, cattle etc.  Clutching at straws here really.

Many Thanks

I am interested in Angliss and variants anywhere but particularly Coventry and the rest of  Warwickshire.   Also interested in Cramp and Burnett (Warwickshire) and Hayward (Lower Slaughter, Gloucestershire)
