Help please ... Is/Was Hanbury in Herefordshire?

[Puffcat]

To toss another idea into the discussion....

I was thinking about a Herefordian accent in Middlesex answering a census enumerator. He may only have lived where he was born for a short while, and also I notice in 1881 the enumerator has only put Bridge, Cornwall for his wife's birthplace !  Not one for accuracy perhaps ?
So, how about Croft Ambrey ? Near Leominster . There is a Joseph Griffiths aged 10 in the Parish of Eye on the 1851 Census, that is also near Croft Ambrey.

just a thought................

I think it probably refers to Avenbury - just south of Bromyard.  I have found a person listed in the 1841 census as born in Hanbury, but by 1871 he was born in Bromyard.  A'nbury could sound like 'anbury!
