If anyone is researching family in East Knoyle, Wilts, there is a book published recently called "The Nature of Knoyle" by Anthony Claydon, HobnoB Press, ISBN 0946418136 In the UK it is 12 pounds sterling, 50 pence inclusive of postage and packing and available from HobnoB Press, PO Box 1838, East Knoyle, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP3 6FA http://www.hobnobpress.co.uk East Knoyle, although in Wiltshire, is very close to the Dorset border and if you have ancestry in North Dorset (Shaftesbury, Motcombe, Gillingham etc) then you may well have interests in the Knoyle area too. There is also a chapter about East Knoyle's most famous family - the Wrens. Christopher Wren the architect was born in the village and his Father was the Rector. Thanks to Carole on this list for telling me about this book in response to my earlier query about the village. If you live in Dorset and see a local book either about Dorset or about a parish in an adjacent county which is very close to the Dorset border, do let the list know. These books are often on a very short print run, only sold locally, and hard to get hold of second hand.
