Thank you for the info chris, I am doing this for the currant owner of the New Inn and had heard stories of smuggling and the place being haunted but that well unless I see!! Nothing in the cencus and directories indicates any type of smuggling. I dont know when it was built may go into that one soon Thanks once again

Hi Lillian
Were you trying to contact me through Trible Pages if so I did try to mail you but it kept bouncing back. Nellie Bennett I thought was Mary and Richard Not Sarah Suan jane she married someone called Thomas Haslam and had one daughter Grace Ann he was 30 and she 18 he was a merchant seaman then her husband died and she remarried a guy called Herbert Maidment in 1905 but after that I cant seem to find anything on them, This family was very complicated as some of the children from the various marriages changed the name to Newton for reasons I dont know, So maybe that is where the name Sarah Jane Newton came from. I will send you a private message with my password to Trible Pages Val

Hi Lisa
Quite a lady our Mary was I have all death certs for her husbands including Thomas but we are still unsure if it was him or not could not make out what he was doing in Notts and wonder how he could have got smallpox I also have this cert think the name may be Emma Parr or Farr if I recall it looks the same as the registrer.

Richard Sauders death fell from a ladder or window sill coroner said accicental death
Mumford Bad chest

Mary had a few more children by Bennett also seems the Mumford children changed name to Newton!!

Big Mystery to me Thomas was my GG Grandfather
