I have checked and she was not buried in the Alton Quaker Burial Ground so it must have been one of the others. Yours Jane

Do not forget that qite a lot of the paper-making Gates attended the Independent Chapel in Normandy Street as did their employers - the Spicers. Many then went to Kent.

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Re: Marriage lookup Benjamin Gunner and Sarah Ransted in Medstead 1725
« on: Sunday 17 June 18 02:50 BST (UK) »
According to the marriage allegation, Benjamin was a butcher from Bentworth - where many of his family came from. I assume that she was of Medstead when married. As you probably know, they moved to Alton and were living in the Ostry complex. His will was proved in 1734. Only their 2 eldest daughters seem to have survived past childhood. I think that Sarah remarried.
Benjamin would have received some money from his father's estate about the time that he married so that must have helped them. Yours Jane

When Samuel married in 1769, he was said to be 'of Alresford' - no mention as to New or Old. They married by licence.

Hampshire & IOW Lookup Requests / Re: Alton Marriage look up please
« on: Sunday 19 February 17 06:55 GMT (UK) »
I am not sure which parish records you want searched.
The 1851 census shows James aged 40 together with children aged 17, 15 and 4 - which suggests that Martha was alive to give birth 4 years before. The only death for a Martha Poor/e in FreeBMD was in 1850 for the Alton district - which could be her. Sadly my fiche of Newton Valence burials are unreadable for that date so I can not get an age at death. You will need to go to the Record Office for this - if it is not clear there - they should let you see the original register.
That will give you an idea of when she was born - with a father named William - although we do know that she was 21+ at the marriage in 1841. If you can find the age at death - we could look for relevant baptisms? Yours Jane

Why did you think that they would not have married in Newton Valence when they lived at Noar Hill at the time?
20 Nov.1841 James Poor, widower, of full age, lab. of Noar Hill, son of Joseph, lab. married
Martha Coles, spinster of full age of Noar Hill, daughter of William, lab.
Witnesses - George Hewett, Harriet Coles.
You are probably aware of the strange shape of Newton Valence parish and Noar Hill? Yours Jane
