Hello again, My evening out has been cancelled. Aren't you the lucky one. The entry in the Notorial Protest Book 1756-1810 Southampton (Southampton Record Series) is Ref 199, page 85 of 1972 transcript: "A local Bill paid 1808 10 Oct'r £90 Redbridge Sept'r7 1808 Thirty days after date pay to my order the sum of ninety pounds for value rec'd Robt HENDY. To Mr MONCHEER, East Street Southampton (endorsed) Payable at Messrs HUNT, TRIM & Co . Accepted W. MOUCHER 1808 Oct'r 11 present'd - this was paid upon being presented." The notation at the bottom of page of the transcript says: "HUNT was a brewer; Joseph, John and Samuel HUNT are to be found leasing brewhouse and inns from 1765 onwards (SC4/3/655etc) TRIM was a grocer; Trim and Kellow; grocers 118 High Street (Directory 1803 and 1811) Partnership set up a bank 25 March 1800: John HUNT, Brewer; Thomas BAKER merchant; Cornelius TRIM, grocer; Samuel MILLER, gentleman; Thomas BLAKE, merchant; Edward TOOMER(D/Z?51)" From same publication there is another, similar presentment payable at Messrs HUNT and Co (Ref 201): I also have a copy of the Minute Book of the Pavement Commission from the same Record Series and this entry on page 117 might be relevant, seeing as this was the rough area where there was definitely a brewery. Unfortunately, there is no index for this book so it is a case of trolling thru it entry by entry looking for names: "Wed 30th March 1785 Application having been made by Mr HUNT to alter the Pavement to make a Gutter acorss the Foot Pavement from York Buildings to East Street to carry the Drain acorss there the Commissioners have given Leave to him to do the same under the Inspection of the Collector" If you contact the Southampton (not Hampshire) Record Office at the Civic Centre quoting the Lease references as above (SC4/3/655) you might be able to take your research a bit further. Southampton City Record Office Email city.archives@southampton.gov.uk You might also still be able to obtain copies of the book or others from the Series. see http://www.soton.ac.uk/~srs/editors.html As an aside: I have an original copy of the NATIONAL ROLL OF THE GREAT WAR 1914-18 for Southampton. If you think any of your male HUNTs were still living in Southampton at this time then I am happy to do a look up for them. The same goes for anyone else reading this. As much detail as possible will help. Hope some of this helps. Yours Vicki Turner

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

Thank you very much. None of these HUNT names jump out immediately as being mine but nevertheless they definitely provide some more pieces for the HUNT jigsaw - even if they do eventually turn out to be a different HUNT family. Lots of pointers for further research too. At this time our only known WW1-era HUNT male in the Southampton area is Arthur Cecil HUNT who died of wounds and whose name is on the Netley Marsh memorial. Thanks also for your other email re the MEATYARD burials in Eling. I checked them out and, while they are somewhat later than my immediate area of interest, they are portentialy useful since MEATYARD is nowhere near as a common a name as HUNT.
