Hello Bucks Listers! A search of all available census on Ancestry has, as usual, provided me with as many questions as answers and I'm hoping someone may be able to help. I am looking at SLATTERs in Haddenham and there were a good many there in the 1800s. Unfortunately, I cant find any Haddenham entries for Slatter on the IGI. For some reason they dont seem to have been transcribed. Does anyone know why? Does SKS have access to Parish Registers for Haddenham? Noah Slatter born 1831 Richard Slatter born 1835 Thomas Slatter born 1836 James Slatter born 1837 William Slatter born 1838 all in Haddenham. I'm wondering if these were all brothers. I'd be pleased with any info Also I have a Shein (!) slatter born 1840 Haddenham who, in 1871 was in an institution. He is described as a patient and the staff as medical attendants. Although I have looked at the original image, I cant find out what sort of place this was. The address is Stone, St John, Stone. Does anyone know anything about this place and is it still there. One last thing, I have an Enoch Slatter who was the Publican at the White Hart in Haddenham. Is this place still there? Thanks for any info Cheers Geraldine

I'm wondering if these were all brothers. will check tomorrow (knees have done their quota of stairs for today) Some of the Slatters lived round the corner from me. >Also I have a Shein shem >(!) slatter born 1840 Haddenham who, in 1871 was in an >institution.

Does anyone know anything about >this place and is it still there. It was the County Mental asyylum. Rather a handsome buidling, whith large grounds and extras like central heating long before such a think was heard of in houses. It was demolished a few years ago and a housing estate build on the grounds. The old chapel used by the inmates still stands and is for sale - any offers? Case books are at Bucks Archives (closed for the usual 100 years) > >One last thing, I have an Enoch Slatter who was the Publican at the White Hart >in Haddenham. Is this place still there? Not as a pub (we used to have 13 and are now down to a mere 6.) The building is there, rather altered and barely recognisable as such. -- Eve McLaughlin Author of the McLaughlin Guides for family historians Secretary Bucks Genealogical Society
