Hi Margery, As I was not able to help with the GILLMANs mentioned in your original message I have not sent any of the information that I have regarding people with this name. >From the List Of Horsley Residents 1811-1815 Benjamin GILLMAN, weaver, 3 males, 4 females in household, Horsley, Landlord Thomas GILLMAN, weaver, 5 males, 5 females, Horsley, Tenant. John GILLMAN, cordwinder, 4 males, 3 females, Horsley, Landlord. Ann GILLMAN, widow, no males, one female, Horsley, Landlady. Richard GILLMAN, weaver, 4 males, 2 females, Horsley, Landlord. Joseph GILLMAN, weaver, 4 males, 4 females, Horsley Tenant [two families]. John GILLMAN, gardener, one male, one female, Horsley, Tenant. This extract contains a large proportion of Land owners compared with the total population. >From The Shortwood Members' Book: Joseph GILLMAN was baptised as an adult on 7th November 1784. Ann GILLMAN, nee SWAIN 16th February 1777. Richard GILLMAN, 9th May 1806, lived at Fooks John GILLMAN, 25th August 1811, lived at Washpool Rebekah GILLMAN, 25th August 1811, lived at Washpool/Downend.
