Thanks Joy: Fascinating, Happy New Year, Mike. -----Original Message----- From: devon-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:devon-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Joy Langdon Sent: Sunday, 22 December 2013 1:31 AM To: Devon@Rootsweb.com Subject: [DEV] Moretnhampstead 1799-1830 I have just come across Silvester Treleaven's Diary on the Moretonhampstead History Society website and it is a fascinating glimpse of what life was like in the Napoleonic War period with militia marching in and out of town, visits by the press gang etc. Well worth a look if you haven't already found it and you might find a mention of an ancestor if they are from Moretonhampstead (especially if they died during the period!) It also mentions people and events in other places in Devon. It has some amusing incidents among the lists of deaths. http://www.moretonhampstead.org.uk/texts/sources/trelchron.ghtml Merry Christmas everybody, Joy ------------------------------------------ The DEVON-L mailing list is co-sponsored by GENUKI/Devon ( http://genuki.cs.ncl.ac.uk/DEV/ ) and the Devon FHS (http://www.devonfhs.org.uk/ ) List archive for Devon can be found at http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/index/DEVON/ ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to DEVON-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
>From the Diary .............Wed. Dec. 9th. Yesterday was married at St. Peter's Exeter, the Rev Mr. Holland to Miss Clack, eldest daughter of the Rev. Thomas Clack, rector of Moretonhampstead and Kenn . Miss CLACK was Frances Diana CLACK and Mr. HOLLAND was Richard. I stand corrected though.
