hello Jacky, There is an Ancestry.com site for railway ancestors which might prove useful to you. http://www.railwayancestors.fsnet.co.uk/index.html Yours Vicki Turner

I have a relative who was a Station Master at Highclere Station. I have found him in two Kelly`s directory`s in 1889 and 1895 so he must be living and working there in the 1891 census - Charles EATWELL Can anyone tell me:- 1) is HRO the only place that holds the 1891 for Hampshire? or are there any other places that hold these details in Hampshire. 2) Are there any books about Highclere and / or it`s station? Charles was born in INKPEN Berkshire in 1843 and I have found him in the 1851, 1871, 1881 and 1901 census all claim the same place and age BUT I cannot find any record of his birth! In 1851 he is in Ashmansworth Hampshire and he is living with his mother and her new first husband . Thank you Jacky

Saturday, April 16, 1853 Winchester - The subscription to the Wellington Testimonial, which was decided on by the county magistrates at the recent sessions, is proceeding satisfactorily. From the response the proposal has already received, it is anticipated that the Hampshire Subscription will demonstrate the high esteem in which the departed hero was held by those who more immediately had the honour of his acquaintance and also their approval of the national object which it is intended to accomplish. Sunday morning last, the newly-elected churchwardens for the parish of St Faith (The Rev H. Holloway and Mr H. Whitrow), who claim the church in the Hospital of St Cross as their parish church, attended and demanded to act as churchwardens, requiring the officiating minister of the day to read the usual citation from the Archdeacon to the churchwardens to attend his approaching visitation. Mr C. Wooldridge, steward of the Hospital, was in attendance and refused, on the part of the Master and Brethren, to have the notice read. Mr Holloway and Mr Whitrow, however, stated their determination of reading the citation and immediately before the sermon began, the former commenced reading. He was, however, immediately stopped by Mr Wooldridge, who, having protested against the right of anyone, whether churchwarden of St Faith or otherwise, to do any act whatever in the church, stated that he should, considering the place he was in, be content with having publicly protested, and not offer any further opposition to anything Mr Holloway might take it upon himself to do. Mr Holloway then read the citation and the matter ended. Tuesday last, Mr Portal, M.P., presented to the Commons petitions for the repeal of the Malt and Hop Duties from the Winchester Farmers' Club. The hon. member also presented petitions from Overton against the admission of Jews into Parliament and against the opening of the Crystal Palace on Sunday. Saturday, April 18, 1903 Winchester - The eclipse of the moon on Saturday was clearly seen in this district, although in London clouds passed over the satellite about eleven o'clock. The moon entered the earth's shadow at 10.34p.m., and about a quarter of an hour after midnight, only a small arc was reflecting the rays of the sun. This was the supreme moment of mid-eclipse, from which time our shadow commenced to pass away, and at two o'clock, the moon once more showing a clear face to the world. Mr. J. O'Hara, of Upper Brook Street, Winchester, was on Easter Monday the means of rescuing a lad off Southampton Pier, who with another, who was unfortunately drowned, were turned out of a boat owing to its capsizing. Southampton - A heavy snow-squall swept over on Monday afternoon and, while it lasted, a number of people boating in Southampton Water were in peril. One craft capsized near the pier, throwing its occupants into the water. A young man was drowned, and the others had a narrow escape. The body of Kate Ranger, aged 16, was found hanging at Woolston on Tuesday afternoon. She took her little sister out for a walk on Bank Holiday Monday and lost her. This preyed on her mind, and it is supposed she committed suicide in her distress. Shortly afterwards, news was received that the missing child was safe with friends. Saturday, April 18, 1953 Winchester - Winchester Harriers Club is making every effort to ensure that the Coronation Sports on the afternoon of June 2nd, in the North Walls Recreation Ground, will meet with complete success. It is expected that there will be 28 events in the programme, which will be carried out to a very close timetable. Specially-struck Coronation medals will be awarded to the winners. The County Council is to be asked by the Education Authority to approve purchase of the former St. Mary's Secondary School, Winchester, for use as an annexe to the Danemark Secondary Girls' School. Exhibitions by Victor Barna and Richard Bergmann, prolific winners of English and World titles and fresh from their successes at Wembley, were the highlight of the Winchester and District Table Tennis League's closed championship finals at Winchester Guildhall on Tuesday. They gave a brilliant display of copybook table tennis, featuring every shot in the game. Eastleigh - Graham Neal, aged 13, deputy head-boy of All Saints' Church Choir, and a member of the choir at Eastleigh North End County Secondary School, has been selected by the Royal School of Church Music to sing in the choir at the Coronation service at Westminster Abbey on June 2nd. He is one of twenty boys selected from 3,000 affiliated choirs, representing some 30,000 choir boys. Droxford - Mr. W.R. Gunner and Major F.H. Gunner, former partners in Gunners Bank, Bishop's Waltham, attended a meeting of Droxford Rural District Council, and received thanks for the services rendered to the council over a long period of years. The chairman, Mrs. Sheila Gadsby, said the firm had acted as the council's bankers and treasurers since the formation of the Rural District Council in 1894 and before that to its predecessor, the Board of Guardians. The association throughout had been most friendly and happy. Friday, April 21, 1978 Winchester - The County Council's ambition is to help Winchester with its traffic difficulties "but to make certain that in helping the prosperity of the city, we don't destroy it," said Mr Frederick Emery-Wallis, Hampshire County Council leader, on Tuesday. He was speaking at the opening of the new Station-road for traffic. Part of a £200,000 traffic plan for the Sussex-street junction area, the road provides a new exit for vehicles leaving the station forecourt. Station Hill will continue to function as an approach road, but is now one-way only. A county council spokesman said congestion would ease at the junction where many frustrated drivers find themselves stuck in jams, now the new link road between the station and Newburgh-street is open. Police have warned treasure-hunters with metal detectors to take care following an incident on Monday when a Winchester man dug up a live hand grenade. He found it in fields at Avington behind the Pinder Centre and police say he was fortunate it did not explode. It was dealt with by a bomb disposal team. Hamble - A plan to build houses on some 29 acres of land was "far too ambitious" and would destroy the village as we know it, a councillor said at Eastleigh Council Highways and Planning Committee. Residential development as proposed in the Hamble Village plan, adopted in 1970 by the County Council, would have far-reaching consequences, Councillor P.J. Molyneux told the committee. In view of the length of time that had elapsed, he urged members to authorise their officers to have another look, before the council decided whether to do anything at all. West End - Plans have been drawn up for a proposed supermarket, with a storage area, staff room and eight flats, on a site at High-street, West End, facing Chapel-road and Lower-road. An application has been submitted to Eastleigh Borough Council by G.J. Lihou Investments and Securities Ltd. --- All of our Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Sounds like a Catherine Cookson novel Moya!!! "What have I forgotten?>" Well, there are traffic jams through the New Forest, the rush at the local supermarket!!! Mind you Eastleigh is hectic today with temps up to 80°F!!! Chris and Caroline ----- Original Message ----- From: "marp" <marp@ntlworld.com> To: <HAMPSHIRE-LIFE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2003 11:00 AM Subject: [HantsLife] Easter greetings! I would like to wish all my many friends around the world and here in the UK a very Happy Easter. For so many of us now so far from our native County of Hampshire, this is probably the time we miss the area the most - the trees and hedgerows now coloured a delicate and fresh green, creating dappled cool shade for shy primroses and later, stately cowslips. Gardens are bright with grape hyacinths, nodding daffodils and elegant tulips. Drifts of pink and white cherry, apple and pear blossom are balanced by the deep blue of blue bells, forget-me-nots and of course the deliciously scented bright red, yellow and orange wallflowers. All those birds the boys used to gather eggs from the nests of - are dashing back and forth putting the finishing touches to their new homes before the families arrive. Swans, pheasants, partridge and moorhens are all hunkered down in fields and along riverbanks patiently awaiting their new broods. The sun is shining, tempting children out of doors for the first time without their winter coats - Oh! that sense of freedom - remember it? I am suddenly back to being a child in Winchester again and, on my way to school, picking kingcups,pussy-willow and sticky buds; watching the water vole in the river near King Alfred's arch and the pair of Kingfishers that darted across the river by the tiny weir there. What else have I forgotten?

Hello list people, In the 1861 census for South Hayling Hants, Norfolk House in the Crescent, there's two entries for young "lodgers" Mary N. RICHARDSON a lodger, age 5yrs, born Warmington, Essex. Another "lodger" Charlotte WHITE a lodger age 10yrs born Colchester (Berechurch) Essex. She was an illegitimate child, her father "reputed" to be a friend of her mother's family. Her mother physically abandoned her, but it seems that "arrangements" had been made for the girl's upbringing, ie lodgement in a "boarding house" . The boarding-house keeper was Ann Yeoman CHESTER a widow aged 47, who was born in Colchester. The 1871 census for the same address shows it to be uninhabited ! I'm seeking to find what Charlotte did and where she lived between 1861 and when she arrived in New Zealand in the late 1870s. She may have been employed as a governess or teacher. Has anyone noticed her anywhere in the 1871 census. Has anybody any suggestions ? Anything at all would be much appreciated. TIA. Cheers, Joy. NZ
