    2. Hello Pam see http://www.gosport.info/Gosport_Maps/Forton_Map_1832/forton_map_1832.html Hope this helps,Linda and Tony I have seen reference on the List to the parish of Forton in Hampshire but can't find it on Parish Locator. Could someone tell me, please, how far it is from Alverstoke (I'm interested in checking out near-by parishes) and is it an 'ancient parish' or of more recent establishment? Many thanks. Pam

    3. Hello Linda and Tony Many thanks for the URLs you sent. I'll check them out. One reply told me that Forton became a Parish in its own right in 1841, so it is possible that my 'lost' Alverstoke rellies who were on the 1841 Census were buried from there. From reading the replies, it seems that Ann's Hill cemetery could be a possible 'resting place'. Do I need an exact date for a check of this cemetery, please? Cheers.
