Swindon Manor was owned by Sermon's for a long time and family members still farm in the area (or at least they have done until recently) and Geoffro replies John SURMON listed as beign buried June 9th 1865 aged 81 has his abode listed as New Swindon......I wonder if this is/was the same as Swindon Village to locals.
