Thomas BRIDGER married Mary CURTIS in Bentley on 3 Sep 1724. There was also an earlier marriage in Bentley, on 3 May 1724, between James BRIDGER (his brother?) and Mary PEARCE. If anyone is connected to either Thomas or James - or has the Bentley PRs on microfiche - I would appreciate any further information that may be available. Kind regards Joy

If its any further help we have the KELLYS directory for Southampton from 1914-15 which lists both private residents and trade.

Hi David Did you find the material from the Southampton Notorial Protest Books 1756-1810 (published version Southampton University 1973) which Viktoria Turner mentioned in HANTS-LIFE back in March 2002 re your James HUNT, Southampton brewer? I am interested in that footnote "giving some detail about the HUNTs who were brewers and brewhouse and inn lessees" but the publication is unlikely to be available in Australia. My great2 grandfather was William Arthur HUNT (1809-1848) born in Hythe, probably Hants. who came out to Australia in 1827 as a Pte. in the 39th Regiment. He transferred to the military mounted police and became Sgt. of the NSW Governor's Bodyguard and later Chief Constable in Parramatta and then in Goulburn, NSW. His parents were probably the Arthur HUNT and Jane MEATYARD married in Eling on 9 October 1805 where he appears to have been baptised on 18 June 1909. I've been unable to progress back beyond there. However, we have two longstanding leads both involving the grog business in the Romsey-Southampton area of Hants. - hence my interest in the pointer provided by Viktoria. First, for at least 3 generations our family has been in contact with the family of Arthur Thomas HUNT (born 1845, Southampton) and his brother Walter HUNT with whom we understand we are related in some as yet unexplained way. Arthur Thomas HUNT was a wine merchant who in 1881 was living with his family at 18 Waterloo Place, Southampton All Saints. He also owned another property "Laurel Bank" near Little Testwood. Arthur Thomas HUNT's wife was Kate ENGLEDON, also born in Southampton and interestingly, one of my William Arthur HUNT's grandaughters was named Kate Ingledon BROADHEAD. In another 'co-incidence', my great grandfather, Arthur Moses HUNT (1844-1880) was a wine merchant in Goulburn, NSW until the vines were decimated by phylloxera. The second lead is the following (semi-legible) list of names etc written in a child-like hand inside a copy of Parkinson's Endeavour Journal that has been in our family for at least 3 generations: Moses H., Moses HUNT, Louisa HUNT, A.C. HUNT, Miss Louisa HUNT is a very bad girl, Miss Matilda HUNT is a very bad girl, John, Mr HUNT Romsey Hants., John HUNT Romsey Hants., Sarah HUNT, Mr Moses HUNT ?Queen's Head Inn Romsey, John LOVAL Romsey Hants., Robert HUNT Queen's Head Inn Romsey Hants., Moses HUNT Queen's Head Inn Romsey Hants., James HUNT Queen's Head Inn Romsey Hants., Matilda HUNT Queen's Head Inn Romsey Hants., Mrs HUNT the [illegible] House, ?Cabbage near Bath, Louisa HUNT ?Enuby Romsey Hants. I suspect the writer was the 'very bad girl', Louisa Annabel HUNT (born 1871), my great aunt who during WW1 married Arthur Cecil HUNT 8 months before he died from war wounds. Arthur Cecil was one of Arthur Thomas HUNT's sons and was believed by both families to be her cousin. While visiting Romsey in 2000 I checked the LTVASG's pubs booklet but it shows no HUNTs at the Queen's Heads in 8 Bell St. or 7-9 The Hundred, Romsey. The only Romsey HUNT innkeeper I've found is Richard HUNT, Corn Factor, Maltster & Innkeeper, at the 'Three Tuns' in Pigot's 1823-4 Directory. Do you know if any of the above names appear in the footnote mentioned by Viktoria or do they otherwise ring a bell with you or any other HANTS-LIFE lister?

Hi there, Vicki will do some scavenging around for you, if you can give me a couple of days. I am going out this evening so I won't be able to look until tomorrow evening. I have the relevant copy of the book which has the document transcribed. Incidentally, don't know if it is any help but there is a MEATYARD burial in Eling on the transcription I did for Chris and Caroline's Southern Life Web page- from a document in my possession. I'll contact again when I have something to report. Yours Vicki Turner

I recently had an enquiry about the possible burial place of Howard Scard and his wife Lilian, a one time postman at Alresford. Unfortunately I have mislaid the e-mail address but if you read this I can tell you that they moved to the Portsmouth area on his retirement and they are definitely not interred in the Alresford cemetery. Sorry I cannot be of more help. Len Strong.

Does anyone out there have an ancestor/s who served as an officer in the 3rd Battalion Hampshire Regiment - which was the Hampshire Militia regiment in 1888? (now known as Territorials) I have some details that might be of interest if you do. Intriguing or what?? Moya Page (nee Banting) researching BANTING and PERREN in Hampshire

Hi David, Moya & Vicki. Sorry to disappoint you all but, seems I have to agree with you. Reply I have from Mandurah F.H.S. They have not been informed of any such law affecting genealogy. Could possibly apply in other sectors of the law. As it only refers to publishing details without permission, and implies that you must gain written consent to publish details of any person living. I think was possibly legislated to prevent concerns like the media, from digging into a persons past life. Would this make "The Freedom of Information Act" null & void ?

In answer to Seamus's email just posted and what I was able to glean yesterday and today, it seems the original email was possibly a hoax. This morning I contacted the Family Records Centre in London - http://www.familyrecords.gov.uk/partners/frc-partner.htm who issue copy BMD certificates. They say that if any application is made for a copy certificate, especially a birth certificate, they would like the applicant to provide the name of the person on the cert, their date of birth and parents names. In the case of a request for a birth certificate for a person born up to 50 years ago, if you did not have all the above information you would be asked why you wanted the certificate. This is to deter someone setting up a false identity. If you cannot provide the information, but mention you are researching your family history the cert. will be provided without hesitation. I am told that the important thing to remember is this information is in the public domain and there is no legislation that could prevent the information being provided to whoever asks for it. I hope that clears up the situation for researchers here in the UK. Moya Page (nee Banting) researching BANTING and PERREN in Hampshire

Hi Moya and list, Just to confirm, as you suggested, that this is not a hoax, and the privacy laws have changed. I do not know exactly how it effects genealogists, but I do know that I will be very careful what I publish, or even pass on to other researchers, without first getting legal advise. With regards to BDM certificates, as far as I know, there is a cut off period for obtaining certificates in most states without identification, eg 70 years for some. After that you need to provide ID, and in some cases, prove that you are related. Doesn't stop you researching, but does make you stop and think before publishing.
