Hi Knowledgeable Ones I see that my 2GGF, William WOODWARD, was an Ag Lab in 1841, living with the HOUGHTON family at ?Somohey Farm, Cropthorne. Could someone please tell me what the actual name of the farm is? [The enumerator wasn't the neatest writer I've come across]. Kind regards Joy

Hello Joy, The following extract from the Victoria County history, coupled with John Kane's reply, may throw sum light on your query: The road from Pershore to Evesham runs through the parish from west to east, and from it at a short distance from the village of Cropthorne a road branches off southwards to Smoky Farm.
