Excellent Pat. This was really bugging me so I'm glad you have found at least a couple of Ings.  :) Fields they most definitely seem to be.  :)

I'm miffed that I didn't find Low Ings as I had a reasonable scour of the area around Thorne ....  :-\

Added: I've located a few more Ings (in the area west of Thorne), but no Middle Ing as yet.

For starters

To establish exactly where Hatfield chase was/is.

http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/place/12855

On link map below you'll see Thorne and Stantoft, using the slidebar or mousewheel zoom in

You'll see Hatfield at 7. oclock in relation to Thorne.

When you have found Hatfield- note the horizontal black line above Hatfield

Follow the black horzontal line to the right and you'll see exactly where Hatfield chase was/is.

In my opinion the marriage residence is not always the place of birth. Never forget Workhouse and overseers accounts records of birth

'Middle Ings, North Toft and Heynes', with map


http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C5146061

It would seem (Then marsh country wetlands bog with semi defined water course) the old meandering river course of the River Don spit near Thorne into two forks, one fork going to join the river Aire between villages Rawcliffe and  Airmyn, the other fork heading East to join the river Tren, across Hatfield Chase (wetlands) North of the todays canal from Thorne to the river Tent

Hi, just coming in on this  :) .
The book "Thorne Mere & The Old River Don" by Martin Tylor has a little snippet, Martin used among others, the historical sources of John Leland (1506 - 1552) who gives a brief description of his visit to Thorne and his boat journey from Thorne to Sandtoft, crossing Thorne Mere on his way.
The Middle Ings / Middlings is the area along the centre of which runs along the A18 (Scunthorpe Road to a local like me  ;) ) in the area of what is now the "Black Bull" public house.

Added, I have not read all of the thread yet, apologies if I have duplicated anything.

I know one of my ancestors lived at 'Middle Ing' or Middleing' near Hatfield Chase. But I cannot find this location. Can anyone help me pinpoint it?



Do you know his/her occupation by any chance?  :)
