If you check with Rootschat Berkshire (as Shalbourn(e)) appears to 'swop' Counties from time to time....
Dated: Tuesday 11 March 2008 and under the Heading:
Anyone know Shalbourn(e) - apart from a lovely map - there are Contributors whose Ancestors were ROLFE. One being Elizabeth STOCKWELL who married Silvanus ROLFE at Hungerford 14 Sept 1872 (I've found him mentioned in British Newspapers on line -)
Another one, dated 8 April 1809 in the same thread - from Nashua - whose husband decends from Mark ROLFE - b 1841 son of Thomas ROLFE and Sarah TRAYHORNE - etc.
I quote.....
'Thomas B 1796 was the son of John ROLFE & Emmy (Amy) CLARIDGE. I believe they did originate from Hampshire, but haven't been able to confirm that.'

Thomas Rolf was baptised in Shalbourne on 2nd Sept 1796, son of John & Emey Rolfe. He is my husband's gg grandfather.
-
Hi spec, yes that is the 1841 Census I posted :)
-
Bapts of Thomas/Sarahs children are on F/S.Org, no Jacob.
Also he was single when he married Sarah 1827.
John Jnr the Marriage witness seems to confirm that he a a Brother of Thomas and their Father was John Snr :)
When/where was Jacob born that you are looking for?
-
Ah Trish many thanks for the info
I may be pushing my luck here but
Is there any chance you could find John snr
I no he wed Amy Claridge
