The Common Room / Re: Lost between Whittington/Swadlincote/London and Shalbourne
« on: Wednesday 08 July 15 00:37 BST (UK)  »
Hi corndolly,

From FreeBMD:
Births Jun 1876, Pocock Annie Elizabeth, Newbury 2c 238.

Until 1895 a part of Shalbourne parish was in Berkshire, then transferred to Wiltshire. (but you knew that already, didn't you?)

Cheers

I would like to be able to colour my tree #proven by data and #theoretical, so that you can see it is a work in progress.

I use RootsMagic and colour code individual people according to where they were born, the majority being default black for England. All suspect or not proven get coloured light grey.
No doubt other FT programmes can do the same.

Cheers.

HI,

Here are a couple from the baptisms at St James church in Abinger:

1785 January 18th, Thos Merryweather, a foundling.
1785 May 12th, A Foundling Infant whimsically named Warley Heath.

Cheers

1881 Census Trowbridge, Wilts: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XQ3Q-BVL

Edward Moody, Head, 69, retired Gentleman's Servant, Wilts, Trowbridge
Eliza Moody, Wife, 71, , Wilts, Bradford
Gertrude Moody, 3, grand-daughter, , Surrey, Sutton

Sutton was/is in the Epsom Registration district so that ties in with the 1877 birth and 1891 census quoted by aghadowey.

OK, I know that this topic has been closed, but I thought that this might help. On an OS map published in 1872, there are two lodges shown in Frimley. The one north of the village centre is obviously the lodge referred to in an earlier reply, being the lodge that was demolished for the construction of a roundabout. The other is labelled "Frimley Lodge" and was located in the village centre, opposite the Post Office and the White Hart PH.
The map can be found at the National Library of Scotland:-  http://maps.nls.uk/view/102347451
Frimley is slightly right of centre.

Hi Terry,

I haven't come across any Gales or Smallpieces in my FT, maybe they are in a branch that hasn't been explored yet.

Cheers.

Hi Terry,

I noticed two burials for James Geale in Fetcham St Mary. One was Nov 23 1646 and the other in Aug 1647. The 2nd being "ye sonne of Widdow Geale".
Fetcham, as you probably know, is next to Bookham.

Cheers.

Also a baptism for John Geale, sonne of James Geale by Ann his wife, Oct 5th 1645.
