Please can you help me pin down my elusive MILLERS. All my previous references were in Cheshire, but the 1891 census has Henrietta Lea MILLER born Woodford, Oxon, Birth registered Chipping Norton c1862. Would this be Woodford Halse, now in Northamptonshire? Would the Parish Records be in Northamptonshire NRO? I can get to Northampton, but if the records are not there, would SKP look in the 1861 census for Henry Miller, Emma aged 46 born Odde Rode Ches., Louisa 15, Emma P 14 and Fanny 6 all born Birkenhead, Ches. (No boys known yet). I would love to know her baptism and if Henry is buried at Woodford. He went from "Gentleman, full age" at marriage to "Butler" for his eldest girl's birth certificate and "Tea Porter" for Fanny's. By Feb 1867 Emma is a widow and remarrying in Cheshire. (This marriage was of my direct ancestors, Emma Miller nee Lea and Ezra Lucas.) If I can do anything for you in Northampton or Bedford Record Office in Census or Parish Registers just say. Thank you Heather

Thanks, Smokey! What a gem to find on a grey November afternoon. It rings bells for me. The upside of being short of food was the hedgerow foraging for wild fruits for jam, and the fields for mushrooms (yes, some of us do still do this), and in those days it was a race to get to there first. Our best blackberries were in the middle of a golf course, and entailed dashing across a dangerous fairway. We went walks with rich milk (from a kind local farmer) in a screw top jar, to be shaken until a tiny knob of butter was formed, to be eaten as a Sunday treat. Our mother's corned beef hash recipe was missed when finally rations were more generous after the war. Not missed were the nettle tops. All this, and the gardening for veggies so well described here, meant lots of exercise - and our school photos show a minimum of overweight children, and none seriously so. We really were healthier in body, on the whole, at least where we lived. TB and diptheria and other contagious diseases were gradually succumbing to new treatments and preventatives, and the horrors of BSE and Aids as yet undreamed of. The folk in the cut flower market had to turn all but a small percentage of land or glasshouses over to food production during the war. Two Polish soldiers came to work, replacing young Tommy who joined the Navy. My father was allowed just to keep a small breeding stock of the carnations he had grown and bred over years, and in their place were rows of lettuces and tomatoes. After the war, it was impossible to re-establish as a carnation grower, and like many others, we moved on. If I could pass on to my children just one smell from my childhood, it would be that of entering a huge greenhouse full of carnations in bloom. That scent cannot be experienced now, because nearly all growers go for size - and dare I say so, for some pretty horrible colours as well - and the perfume which enveloped us has been bred out. Just one or two growers specialize in trying to produce the older type. Oh dear, Smokey, you've started me off...........

Hi Heather, In the Enstone PR's there is a Henrietta Lee MILLEN daughter of Henry & Emma domestic servant Woodford on Oct 13, 1861...There are some others also and they are also transcribed MILLEN..

We never had a garden but we did have a small allotment not far from the flat. It was about thirty feet wide and fifty feet long as I remember. Prior to the estate being built it was a home of rest for horses. Horses being horses and doing what horses do there were high hopes of some well manured plots just ready for cultivation. Well we must have been very unlucky or the horses perhaps were housed elsewhere because our allotment proved to be mostly London clay. My father set to work with great enthusiasm in 1935 but by 1937 it had been left to my mother as yet another domestic chore and she soldiered on as best she could. Between her efforts and my willing but not very useful support that plot produced potatoes, dwarf beans, peas, onions, cabbage, lettuce and chrysanthemums throughout the war. Sometime around 1947, not long before varicose ulcers forced mum to give up gardening, she lost her engagement ring on that allotment. She was terrified of what my father would say but, as I guessed, he never noticed and she never told him. So the allotment fell to me to look after and I managed to keep it going although not with a great deal of enthusiasm. As the need for the produce as a supplementary food source declined I began to experiment with more flowers and soon I was growing petunias, asters, carnations and dahlias along with the chrysanthemums, golden rod and delphiniums that my mother planted. Tending to these one day in 1960 I found this rather grubby ring laying upon the surface of the soil. It transpired to be mother's lost engagement ring which she washed and replaced upon her finger. My father did not comment but he was still unaware that it had ever gone missing. There is a romantic for you! Len

Grandad and I were a team. He dug his garden every day, despite having only one arm. 'I left it in Weepers, Joey, but they've promised to send it on'. Kindly meant, but this gave me dreams of an arm arriving in the post. Braces, big belt, and string around the trouser legs: ‘Keeps out the wermints, Joey’. The soil in Masser Road was black and loamy, having been well fed with soot and welcome gifts from Winnie. My duties were minimal but crucial to success. They included the inspection of worms to determine the longest of the day (only Mr Hood, our personal robin, was allowed to eat any); acknowledging salutes from passing steam engines; and the organisation of regular tea breaks. Each time the colliery train passed, he would take out a large fob watch from a waistcoat pocket, examine it carefully, look at me and shake his head sadly. Never any comment. He never used a mug, but always poured his tea into the saucer and blew on it, before sipping, with obvious and noisy enjoyment. My subsequent attempts to copy this procedure at home met with a disappointing response. One rare social skill was his ability to take a pinch of snuff, single-handedly, during tea breaks. He never smoked: 'They seed the light, Joey, they seed the light'. I longed to play a more active role in our team. One contribution, meant as a surprise, the pruning of roses in the front garden, was not considered a total success, and never repeated. The replacement bush was always known as ‘Joey’s Gift’. Another occasional duty, in wet weather, was cutting copies of the Daily Graphic into suitable sized pieces, which were then nailed to the wall in what was known as 'the lavvy'. Each evening Grandad relaxed before the fire in 'his' chair (which no-one else ever used it) and listened to the wireless with a bottle of stout. Once a week, empty bottles were collected from both grandad and neighbours, and trundled in my trolley round to the outdoor, for recovery of the deposits. These were solemnly given to mother as my wages for the week. Memories can play false, but life seemed more graceful and dignified, with time passing slowly. As a Country we were fighting to survive, times were hard; food was short; yet everyone had time for one another. Smokey Checked by Norton 2004 before transmission with Mozilla Thunderbird

This would not have been Woodford Halse. There is a Woodford in Enstone. Not a Hamlet, but an area consisting of three cottages on the River Glyme. Anyone who has the look-ups for Enstone would soon be able to sort that one out I should think. I assume there must be other Woodford's in the Chippy area, but cannot bring any to mind. I will try another group I am a member of. Ian

Been Bush Betty? You mean you've been taking on John Kerry? Well won! Ian

_____ Hello List, Some more of my ancestors from in and around the Banbury area. I was curious if there is a connection with anyone from the list. Ann WRIGHT married Christopher STEPHENS Dec 30, 1847, Leamington Priors, Warwick (found on IGI - shows her father is Thomas and his father is also Thomas). Their daughter, Sarah Alice STEPHENS was born Oct 16, 1849, Leamington, Warwick (I have a copy of her birth registration) Elizabeth WRIGHT is a witness to Sarah Alice's marriage to John Henry BETTS Nov 19, 1878 in Deddington. Sarah Alice was living in Clifton before she married John Henry (I have a copy of the marriage certificate) There is an Elizabeth WRIGHT in Banbury, next door to the BETTS family on High Street in 1881 (found on Family Search LDS) There is a larger WRIGHT family, head Thomas WRIGHT age 48 in 1881 in Clifton, Deddington, and I'm wondering if this Thomas Wright and Ann WRIGHT, above, are brother and sister? Perhaps Elizabeth, living next door to the BETTS is the daughter of Thomas? I found a Christopher STEPHENS, widow, age 59 in 1881 living with a HARRIS family in Leamington Priors, Warwick.
