At that time the County of Huntingdonshire, which was bounded by Northamptonshire and Cambridgeshire, was renamed as a 'district'. Ramsey was in the County of Huntingdonshire. There is an interesting website with the history of the county at www.huntingdonshire.info Liz ==== ENG-CAMBRIDGESHIRE Mailing List ==== .
