HI I have been researching the Trollops Trolip/Trollip/Tollope/Trollopes for quite a while, I am directly descended. Libbeus is 4x gt grandfather. HIs son Thomas my 3 x gt grandfather
Libbeus 1836 Burials in the Parish of Horningsham in the County of Wilts.
Libbeus Trollope Abode: Horningsham When buried 26th May. Age 89. by Rev F Skurry.
I also have a copy of the Longleat archive "rolls" of Horningsham. which pre-date the 1841 census.
Problem is we moved and I haven't a clue where I put them!
I have visited Horningsham several times as well as the archives at Trowbridge.
I actually saw my ancestors cottages.... and several graves and visited the Independent Chapel.
We met 1 person who asked what we were looking for and when I explained he said he was also a Trollope !! how amazing.
I also used the LDS microfiches to obtain Baptisms Deaths, Marriages etc. all probably available on line now.
You may know that there are 2 Thomas Trollopes that appear in Horningsham at this time, mine Married Mary Edwards, 8 children that I am aware of.
The Trollopes also seemed to marry often into other known Horningsham families, the Carpenter's, Garretts, Marsh, White, and other Trollope families,
e.g. Hannah Trollope dau of Thomas married Emmanuel Trollope son of Lambert.
Newbie.
