Hi There

just had a look at the names you are researching & noticed Hartland WOR & wonder what part of WOR this is for as I have a line at Ombersley & a few at Hartlebury

All the very best

Hi Phil,
My mystery lady is Mary HARTLAND who was on the 1851 census as from Broadwas aged 59 and on the 1861 as from Martley aged 70. I cant find a baptism in either location She m Edward HODGES 25 May 1813 in Doddenham! They had 1 child in Doddenham 5 children in Whitbourne HRF then 3 in Claines Mary died in Claines
Hope that helps let me know if you come across a birth/baptism for Mary

Thanks Phil, I think this is going to take some time to work out I think I need to search all the adjoining Parishes in Worcester and Hereford for both Mary HARTLAND 1792 (at least the date remains consistant on censuses and burial) and her husband Edward HODGES 1788 but his birth place is always given as Martley

Do you know of any chapels etc in the Martley area? When are your HARTLANDs fromOmbersley? My Moule/Rostin/Marshall families are in Ombersley from 1726
