He appears to have followed his father in this trade, and his death certificate records that he died on 22 June 1942 at Bitterne Brewery. The cause of death was stated to be 'Due to War Operations'. I have never come across this before I cannot guess what a 55 year old licensed victualler would have been doing that would cause his death at what appears to be his home that could be attributed to 'war operations'. Service in the Home Guard comes to mind, but I would have expected the cause of death to be something more specific. Could he have been killed accidentally by a member of the armed services?

Hello, Perhaps it’s time for another airing for my SEARLE ancestors now that Woodbury is being mentioned. I have John SEARLE bpt. Jan 1 1772 and his sister Agnes Hearne SEARLE bpt. Nov 23 1783 both in Woodbury. Their parents were William SEARLE and Molly Land HEARNE. I can’t find where William came from but Molly was b. Lympstone ca 1748 and they married there in 1771. There is an eleven year gap between the two children and looking at the Woodbury records I can’t find any children in between them. Did they move away for a time? Or did they just not have any children during those eleven years? They seem to have lived in Woodbury after Agnes’ birth - she was married there and her six children were born there - she was my 4xG grandmother. Although I’ve traced Agnes I’ve been unable to trace where her father William SEARLE came from or when he died and her brother John is also a complete mystery. Any ideas about this family would be very welcome. Are they perhaps related to your Woodbury SEARLEs Keith? Or should I be looking for a SARDLE family?

Thanks Terry That's interesting. I was basing my views on the fact that my grandmother who was as Devon as you could get tended to extended vowel sounds and "er" and "r's in a very distinctive way and the "r" was pronounced everywhere. I believe it was referred to as a Rhotic accent. Of course we must remember that in mid 1700s Devon villages were seldom touched by outside influences so when a new curate from say the Midlands or North of England arrived he pronounced things as he heard them.

As a Devonian (admittedly not with a strong accent) I would pronounce the name as SERLE- completely ignoring the A in it. So in a strong accent it probably came out as Sarle.

Hi, Fascinating to see my 4x great grandmother Mary SEARLE being given an airing. Thanks Bev. I first saw the story about her being born on a Thursday, baptised on a Thursday and so on about 35 years ago in the Exeter Flying Post (I think it may have been a Thursday:-) ) and I can confirm it is accurately reported. For the record she was born Mary Perriam on Thursday 30th Jan 1775 at Rockbeare the daughter of John PERRIAM and Elizabeth LEIGHT. She married Thomas SARDLE on 16th Feb 1775 at Rockbeare and died 3rd Mar 1836 at Littleham (Exmouth). She was indeed disabled and effectively a bed "layer/lyer" for 16 years but I do not know why. This story gives me an opportunity to remember that as family historians we have to keep an open mind and it's not always modern day transcribers who make mistakes. I was searching for the birth of said Thomas SEARLE and any other children to Thomas and Elizabeth SEARLE who had hitherto been living in Woodbury. I knew from a family bible parchment that they lived in Rockbeare at some time and when I first looked through the Rockbeare registers all I could find were two children born to the couple but not my direct ancestor Thomas or any other siblings. I searched neighbouring parishes and eventually, armed with some dates which I had fortunately found in the family bible I returned to the Rockbeare registers and found the remainder of their children born to Thomas and Elizabeth SARDLE. Thomas had been baptised SEARLE in Woodbury and at his death in Exmouth he was described as SEARLE. So what happened in Rockbeare? When I looked through some other entries in the register at that time it seemed that there was a new vicar who was not from the Devon area and it was possible that when he heard "SEE-ARR-EL" in a deep Devon accent could only think it was spelt SARDLE. I doubt whether Thomas or Elizabeth ever had cause to see the registers - even if they could read and write- so they would not have known their surname had been wrongly inscribed. As other Searles will testify it's a name that many people seem to get wrong.

Hi All and complements of the Season I have an interest in the Mogridge family of East and West Ogwell. John MOGRIDGE married Elizabeth PARKER at West Ogwell in 1755. I know of two children John 1756-1849 mar Susannah WOOTTON in 1780 at East Ogwell and Stephen chr 1764 West Ogwell and may have died c 1844. He married Mary LINSCOTT in 1786 at East Ogwell. This couple are my ancestors. They had at least 4 daughters: Mary 1786, Susannah 1788, Elizabeth died 1792 and Sarah b 1792-1831. Sarah married Thomas SHAPLEY (1789-1851) in 1816 at West Ogwell. Sarah and Thomas are my ancestors.   Any connections or extra information would be most welcome.   Cheers Chris Farrington Auckland New Zealand

That will be it Terry, thanks, her daughter Annie died at Newton Abbot R/D in 1926. She was married to George Alfred LEAMAN and he died at Dean Prior in 1953.

I am also looking for a burial place for William VOOGHT, of Ugborough who died 18 Jun 1924. He is not buried at Ugborough, so where was he buried/cremated? I think he was buried/cremated on the 21 Jun 1924. Also, where was Owen John VOOGHT buried/cremated? He died Dec Q 1924 and he was of Lutton Farm, South Brent. He may have died on abt the 14th Oct. 1924. My burials do not go up quite that far. Thanks so much for any guidance or help. Bev

Bev Edmonds need look no further than an Ordnance Survey map of South Devon/Dartmoor. The parish name is well advertised by a large West Country retail store in the parish, which started near Liskeard in Cornwall. (Adds here are forbidden) The village of Liverton on the road south of the wood is probably where the farm was situated. The map, while not showing the farm, clearly marks Old Leys Wood on the north side of the road leading from the old A38 to Ilsington and Haytor. >From the modern A38 turn off at Drum Bridge which is where the Newton Abbot road to Bovey Tracey crosses the A38. Follow sign post from here. O.S grid ref; 808 east 754 North. Dennis Bramble
