Here goes with another question, List: Has anyone heard of or know of a place called Marlopen - somewhere in the vicinity of Uffculme/Kentisbeare? I find it nowhere on genuki for this in Devon towns and parishes. Lora

Perhaps you should check your designated language(s) on your computer. They look possibly similar to ASCII codes. Edna - Ottawa

Hi Lora What’s the context of the place name? Who are the people, what are the dates and source associated with it? It may help one of us to identify it. I couldn’t find it either, just as a place name.

Hi Mike - I think it is a farm/estate near Uffculme, one of my ancestors a little girl named Mary Ann Hooper was baptized 28 May 1816 there - her sibs near Uffculme too - another at Hill Pond, a couple others at Ponchidown which I see is really nearer to Kentisbeare (I think) - parents Philip and Mary Hooper (they eventually moved to Gittisham where they remained). Ponchidown (I see various spellings for it) I find, but not Marlopen or Hill Pond which are both given as "Uffculme" on parish registers. Thanks, Mike.

I am wondering if this is the transcriber confusing manuscript versions of M and H? Is Hill Pond Mill Pond? There is a holiday cottage at Uffculme advertised online called Mill Pond Cottage. And is Marlopen Halberton? The clerk could have misheard Halberton spoken in a Devon accent as Harlopen just as the earlier enquirer wondered if Ditson could be Dittisham. Ponchidown is modern Ponchy Down.

I’ve had a look at the Kentisbeare PR images at FMP and I think the place name is Marle Pen. I’ve also had a look at a map of the area at https://maps.nls.uk/geo/find/#zoom=15&lat=50.8735&lon=-3.2992&layers=B000000TFFFTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF&b=10&point=0,0 and there are a large number of 'old marl pits' but unfortunately I couldn’t see a Marle Pen.

I have just looked at the baptism entry. The parish is Kentisbeare and the place looks like Marle Pen as two separate words. There is one other entry for the same place on that page. Marle possibly is Marley. I noticed Mr Hooper was a husbandman so there is a possibility of a will, land transaction, or Tithe/Apportionment records. I looked at the OS maps on Bing but could not see a Marley. Ponchydown Farm is just to the east of Kentisbeare.

Joy, There is a capital H in the name and occupation - Hooper and Husband. In the adjacent columns so I will stick with M and I don't think the l is a k. I found a reference to Marlpen and a Coombe family born there around this time on Geneanet but I think the source is the registers. I also found an elder sibling who was born in Ponchydown and then the family became non-conformists and a child was born in Brockhol and back to the parish in Hill Pond the Cold Spring. I can't find Marlepen referenced in the 1841/51 census.

very interesting, Paul! I have Mary Ann, bap 28 July 1816 Marlopen, then James bap 26 Apr 1818 Ponchidown, and +1818?, another James c. 1819, bap `13 Apr 1823 Hill Pond; then George Bap 13 Apr 1823 Hill Pond; and Benjamin * 4 Sept 1825 Cold Spring, +22 Jan 1826, 4 mos - mother was buried 4 days after Ben's birth. There is a sibling older than Mary Ann? Interesting too about the nonconformist - it must have been due to the 1st wife; my ggg grandmother was wife #2 and they are in Kentisbeare after that - finally for good to Gittisham.

Ziggy, Based on my research in nearby Halberton and the Culm Valley. I believe these are the names of agricultural workers tied cottages and tenements. Married workers were given accommodation as part of their employment while the single workers slept in barns and ate in the farmhouse kitchen. The cottages/tenements were sometimes part of the farm buildings sometimes nearby and sometimes in the village. Young workers were often employed for one year but older, more experienced workers were retained and kept their cottage as long term workers. From the early 1800s common (community) lands were enclosed and take over by the local labndowners. These small holdings were consolidated into larger, more profitable farms and the smallholders changed from being farmers to agricultural workers. I suspect the Hoopers may have lost land in this way. A few years ago I used the census and Ordnance Survey maps, old and new, to find my ancestors' homes and when we were on holiday nearby. They can also be found on Google Earth although the street view is of just a hedge.

Lora: Are you sure it's not a farm name?  Perhaps a modern OS map might help locate it, as farm names changed little, if any, down through the years.

Hi Sher - I have no idea - I am guessing that maybe it was a farm name, either long gone or name changed.
