23th.October 2005 Hi Patricia - many thanks. It seems printers moved around, which makes sense. The 35 St.Johns Road, St.Johns, Winchester, SPENCER Census Entry for 1901 and the 1896 Marriage Entry for Henry Joseph SPENCER and Rose Francis PAICE coincide with 'vague' family memories. There was a St.Johns connection. My Grandfather (Henry) also called his wife Rose. Enoch SPENCER may indeed be Henry's father. Again many thanks.

James married a Sarah (surname unknown) and they lived in Millbrook/ Hampshire. I have found a number of records that give different names for the children of James and Sarah - so that can only mean that there were two James and Sarah Bullpitts from that time. Their son, Harry or William Henry was my ancestor. His son, Harry Percival, is my great grandfather. .... and there are no snowflakes in Bundaberg - ever...... so kind of a confusing analogy there Don! Kind regards, Melissa

Can anyone share any information with me about the BULLPITT family from Hampshire? I have traced my family back to a James Bulpitt born in approximately 1819, but am unable to find anything more than that. My family are all from the Bundaberg area in Queensland Australia now, so perhaps that will help? Kind regards, Melissa

I've been pursuing the name of PRICKTOE/PRICTOE and occassionally PRESTOE. This is a very scarce surname so I've been extracting all of the records that I can from the internet. Jane PRICTOE was my ggg g/m born Knights Enham 1836. The name is almost exclusively from that area. I have visited the LDS library and extracted most of the Andover records and have linked most of the PRICKTOE family. Thanks to "The Genealogist" I have been trawling through the BMDs since 1837 and have reached 1960 so far. Thanks to ancestry I have from 1851 through 1901 censuses (although unfortunately they have taken the 1851 offline for a while). I have found several "cousins" through the Hants list and also the Wilts list, as some of the line went over the border to the Hungerford district. One other line went to Brentford. I would be very interested in any knowledge of living Prictoes because they are almost certain to be linked to the tree that I have created and Iwould love to get in touch with them. Offshoots from this line in the Andover area are BULPIT, FISHER,WEEKS, BIRD and two lines of SMITH Paul

Melissa, Where in Hampshire did the family live? What records of the family have you found in census returns, parish registers, etc?

Help wanted. My ggrandparents were Benjamin Marsh & Ellen (nee Bellinger). Ellen died in childbirth when my grandmother Flora was born in 1872. The family were living in London at the time but I believe that Benjamin was born in Portsea abt. 1838 and Ellen was baptised in South Hayling in 1837. Her parents were William & Emma Bellinger. After the death of Ellen, Benjamin moved back to Portsea and remarried. Can anyone help with information about Benjamin's birth/baptism and parents. Also William & Emma's marriage/baptisms? Gill

Could any one tell me a person living PURBROOK. Portsmouth have their death notice submitted to the local Portsmouth newspaper and if so what would it be and are they on line so that I can trawl thru the archives in the hopes of locating a death ntoice hopefully submitted late December or early January 2002 / 2003 Thanks for help Elaine in OZ

Just for interest - here in Nelson, New Zealand we are commemorating the 200th as well. We have a 4 x GGrandson of Horatio Lord Nelson with us for the events and we are opening a brand new regional museum this weekend as well. Our feature opening exhibition features Nelson and the highlights of his career plus much more - the exhibition is wonderful. Anyone coming our way in the next few months - we'd love to see you.

SKS sent me these details in 'Fareham Past and Present' [Autumn 2005]: 'Fareham men at the Battle of Trafalgar...James Knight aged 35. Ordinary seaman.SB106 HMS Ajax. 1 Mar 1805 It is possible that he is the son of John and Mary Knight bap at St Peter and St Paul, Fareham in June 1769' Might be handy for someone... Edna - Ottawa

Hi Keith - if you don't already have it this seems to be the 1901 entry for your folk: 35 St Johns Road, St Johns, Winchester Henry J SPENCER 27 Machine minder printing works. B East Heathly, Essex Rosa 27 B Easton, Hampshire Henry J 5. B Winchester Dorothy M 3. B Winchester There is a marriage entry for Henry Joseph SPENCER and Rose Frances PAICE in Winchester, 1896. Frances/Fanny can often be shortened to Annie. If you look for her in 1881 she is listed as Frances PAICE. Henry may be the son of Enoch SPENCER, a printer, who is living in Little Ilford, Essex in 1891. Little Ilford, Essex. 26 Winiford? Rd. Enock SPENCER 50 Printer. B Sheepshed, Leicestershire Mary 46.

Many thanks Alan for your information, it is very much appreciated. Now I have to understand where Newtown is in relation to Vernham. I have to admit to finding this particular geographical area on the edge of three counties to be most confusing. Thanks again for the information, regards Peter Eastman.

Dear All I have tried an adress search for an 82 Sydney road in Gosport on the 1901 census and it seems to end at number 50. I know it exists according to Kelly's and a marriage certificate....any clues for me? Best Sarah
