This book is for sale on Ebay - item number: 330142098846 - ending 10 July, 2007 - "Softback book titled 'Romsey Schools 900 until 1940' by Pat Genge & Jessica Spinney. 92 pages, 5.9" x 8.25", first edition softback published by LTVAS, Romsey in 1991. The authors are committee members of the Lower Test Valley Archaeological Study Group (LTVAS) and it is the comprehensive history of schools in the market town of Romsey near Winchester and Southampton, Hampshire. It includes names of some teachers and pupils from the 19th century and so would be interesting to genealogists researching families in Romsey as well as local historians."

Hello Everybody, Thanks to those people who suggested an origin for the surname Ajoubeat in response to my query. It appears that it is posibly a variation of the Walloon Huguenot surname Agombar, which has several variations and a lot of them were around Bethnal Green area of London. My ancestor who caused the name to be on birth certificates was, it appears, a person who marked documents with a cross! Regards, Rod.

Hello, I have located an ancestor on the census records. Her place of birth is listed as South Stoneham. Does anyone have any information regarding this village? The family is NEWLYN. It appears that the mother and father were both living in South Stoneham, they were married in 1841 after the census was taken. The 1841 census has them both living in the same house as servants. Emily NEWLYN was born in 1842 in South Stoneham. It appears her mother (Ann Hazard?) passed away in 1849. I can find nothing of the father (I believe John) after this time. Emily is listed as a visitor in a Workhouse at the age of 10 and a servant at the age of 20. She married in 1868. Anyone with any information would be appreciated. Also, does anyone have the ability to do a look-up of the parish records of South Stoneham? Thanks for your help, Nancy

This affects anyone who consults old newspaper records, whatever part of the country they are in. You may already be aware of it, but I've only just heard: The historic newspaper collection in Colindale, London (and as much of a pain to get to as Kew!) is to move to Boston Spa in Yorkshire. By 2011 it is expected that access to the newspapers will be at St. Pancras, and by digital or microfilm copies only - originals will only be vaailable for inspection in exceptional circumstances.

The IGI does not have good coverage of Hampshire, therefore many Hampshire parishes do not appear in the Batch Number listing. Kings Somborne has registers dating from 1567, but it is not in the IGI or the BVRI. Hampshire parishes with their register start dates are listed on my site at http://website.lineone.net/~hantshistory To give you some idea of the timescales involved, many of the Hampshire parish registers filmed at Hampshire Record Office in 1982 have not yet appeared in the IGI. A transcript of Kings Somborne Baptisms 1700-1971, Marriages 1700-1961, Burials 1700- 1952 is available on CD. There is a link on my site.

Jayne Farnborough is there as I can remember typing it out, http://www.southernlife.org.uk/farnboro.htm Unfortunately I have not had access to the parish church there to get the history.

Anjou is a former county (c.880), duchy (1360) and province centred on the city of Angers in the lower Loire Valley of western France.
