I am trying to fill in details for the early life of James WINTLE c 1817. I am hoping someone can help me for the period up to his marriage in 1850. The only fact I have in that period is a Law List entry for 1843, he was a Solicitor at Newnham on Severn.
Any detail would help

There are lots of references to James Wintle of Newnham in the papers. (Though there also appears to be a company 'James and Wintle, solicitors).
Do you have a subscription to F M P or BNA to access them?

There has been discussions around 2007 of the Wintle's .... on the Forest of Dean Forum.
'The Wintles (solicitors) of Newnham were descended from James WINTLE, b 1707 a pinmaker of Gloucester. They moved from Saintbridge House in Gloucester to Hill House, Newnham (which is now Unlawater House) and appear to have handled many property transactions. They are related to the Gilbert Wintles and also the Wintle of Culham, several of whom were in Holy Orders.
Hill House is where James WINTLE and his family are on the 1861 census for Newnham.
