Hartham House Corsham
« on: Saturday 15 August 15 19:38 BST (UK) »
A marriage certificate that I've aquired states that when the marriage occured in Corsham in 1906, both parties were residing at "Hartham Corsham", he as a Chauffer; I am assuming that they were then both in service at the big house.
I wish to know if there are any pictures of the house or the residents on the Web? I've found http://www.visitwiltshire.co.uk/ideas-and-inspiration/hartham-park-p1669503 and there is a Wiki entry but I'd like to learn more.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks JJ. I might see if the local history group has anything.

Hi

I just wondered if you had ever found out anything regarding your ancestors at Hartham house only my ancestor also worked there but it was a bit earlier than yours in about 1865 ish for a couple of years.  I am also struggling to find out anything about how I can obtain further info although I have just emailed the Wiltshire history society. 

I know this post was ages ago!!lol

No, I'm afraid I've got nowhere, that's a pretty website of http://harthampark.com/about/the-house/ but doesn't tell us what we wish to know. I'd be interested to know if you get anywhere.  ??? ;)

Hi Fuzzy

I have emailed the Wiltshire Family History Society and given them info on my ancestor, so if I get anything from them I will let you know, they have replied and are researching it for me, they do charge but it is only £5.
