I posted a version of the settlement examination item below some days ago for the WARNER / VOLLER researchers out there which had it that Joseph ROLANDS in 1825 was age 40, that his birthplace as Sutton Cottow ,and that he worked there for a Mr HICKHAM. I found the item on the website of The Keep at Brighton in Sussex. The problem with age 40 is that Joseph needs to be say up to 15-20 years older to be Joseph WARNER who was 60 in the 1841 census (probably rounded down) and 85 when he died in 1851 at the Hastings Union workhouse at Ore. I enquired with the East Sussex record office to find out if 40 was a transcription error. I also felt that Sutton Cottow should actually be Sutton Cotton which is another name for Sutton Scotney which is near Bullington and Micheldelver in Hampshire. Also, a poll book for Hampshire of 1790 has a Mr WICKHAM at Sutton Scotney, so I asked if the name HICKHAM should be really be WICKHAM. The archivist replied super fast. He confirmed that Sutton Cottow actually reads Sutton Cotton and that Mr HICKHAM actually reads Mr WICKHAM. He also said that the part regarding Joseph's age actually says '40 years and upwards' which indicates uncertainty about his age and that he could easily be up to 20 years older. The now corrected entry at the website of The Keep is as follows below, and it includes a couple of extra details the archivist added regarding the legal settlement of Joseph's parents. Joseph's mother would have acquired her legal settlement automatically from her husband upon marriage. https://www.thekeep.info/collections/getrecord/GB179_AMS2277_2330_24 Title: Settlement examination taken at Winchelsea Date: 29 Nov 1825 Repository: East Sussex Record Office ESRO reference: AMS 2330/24 Level: Item Description: Joseph Ronalds: aged 40 years and upwards; born at Sutton Cotton [Sutton Scotney], Hampshire where his father was legally settled and his mother was relieved by the parish; aged 10 hired as an under carter by Mr Wickham of Sutton Cotton [Sutton Scotney], then Mr Edney of Bullington, Mr Keansley of Manor Farm, Micheldelver, Mr German at Chidham in Hambledon; 13 years ago examined as to his settlement at Droxford, Hampshire; lived in St Clement Hastings before coming to Winchelsea, married about three years ago to Elizabeth Voller at St Mary in the Marsh, Kent. It seems that we might now have a DNA match between a WARNER descendant and a VOLLER descendant, with the common ancestor on both trees being Elizabeth WARNER who married John VOLLER in 1803 and then Joseph ROLANDS in 1822. It appears that Joseph ROLANDS was also known as Joseph WARNER, the father of Richard WARNER baptised at Hastings 1819 who emigrated to New Zealand and Robert WARNER baptised at Hastings 1822 who had a massive family at Ore near Hastings Sussex of 20 children with his two wives. Has anyone else got a WARNER / VOLLER DNA match? https://www.thekeep.info/collections/getrecord/GB179_AMS2277_2330_25 Title: Settlement examination taken at Winchelsea Date: 29 Nov 1825 Repository: East Sussex Record Office ESRO reference: AMS 2330/25 Level: Item Description: Elizabeth Ronalds: aged 47, born as Elizabeth Warner at Durley, Hampshire, hired by Mr Cousens of Bishops Waltham, Hampshire, then by John Cousins of Exton, Hampshire, about 22 years ago married John Voller of Titchfield at Durley, after several years he absconded, she was in Titchfield poorhouse, they had children Abraham (21 years), William (13 years) and Ann (12 years), co-habited with Joseph Ronalds and they have two illegitimate sons, Richard (5 years) born at the house of Tutt Hicks in Hastings, and Robert (3 years) born at Mr Bevill's huts in Hastings, she and Joseph were married in Jul 1822 at St Mary in the Marsh, Kent. Sutton Scotney is in Wonston parish. ROLANDS isn't a name in Wonston OPR but REYNOLDS is, so I'm thinking that RONALDS could turn out to be a version of REYNOLDS. It's just speculation at this stage. A few words about Richard WARNER's wife Eliza WRIGHT's mother Elizabeth who was probably Elizabeth STACE. Her civil death registration says she was 76 at death in 1871 in the Hastings Union workhouse at Ore. The 1871 census also says she was 76 in the workhouse. But the 1861 census also says that she was 76 which implies age 86 in 1871. FamilySearch has Hailsham workhouse registers online and on one of the films that has been scanned there is a Hastings workhouse death register. The workhouse death register says she was 82 when she died. Not only that, when she was admitted into the Hailsham union workhouse 9 Feb 1841 with the rest of the family (the old workhouse at nearby Hurstmonceux not the new one then being built at Hellingly), she gave her birth year as 1779 the same birth year as her husband James WRIGHT, and that makes her age 92 in 1871 !!!. She got a lot younger as she got a lot older if you know what I mean. Her baptism was at Ewhurst parish in 1788. That wa sn't unusual for traveller types like the WRIGHTS who were often some years late to baptism.. The isn't a STACE presence in the parish before the family that Elizabeth was born into, so they must have come from somewhere else beforehand. The WRIGHT family took itself out of the Hailsham workhouse on 13 March 1841 which was the day daughter Eliza WRIGHT married Richard WARNER at Ore in the year prioer to emigration to Nelson NZ. The WRIGHT family was back in the same Hallsham workhouse in November. Peter

Hi Paul Archives Christchurch visit I live out of town, but if you get no other offers I should be able to do your Christchurch Archives lookup some time in the next few weeks. Listers would probably find it interesting to have a look at the article in the Lyttelton Times dated 24 December 1862 with a very comprehensive list of the names of the Provincial Government Immigrants on that voyage of the “Echunga", including ‘ William BLUNT, wife, and 6 children ‘. https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/LT18621224.2.9 I note that, preceding the list of all the assisted immigrants, that the report lists a number of passengers landing at Lyttelton : 26 1st cabin passengers, and, unusually for shipping reports of the time, the report also names 25 steerage passengers. Given the circumstances, it is probably the case that the report of passengers landing at Lyttelton are only those passengers who were originally contracted to land there. Please let me know if anyone else has done (or offered to do) your lookup.

Hello listers, Is there anyone visiting Archives Christchurch who may be able to look at a document they have for me? The document file is B. Woolcombe (Timaru) to Provincial Secretary - reports on Echunga and which furnishes a list of passengers landed at Timaru - 29/12/1862. (Archives reference R22191123, CH287 CP32 ICPS1946/1862). Archives has confirmed that the file 'does indeed list the passengers'. *Background:-* My g-g-grandfather, William BLUNT, his wife and 6 children (Mary, Tom, Maria, Eliza, William and James) were to land at Timaru in December 1862 from the "Echunga' a barque from England. Unfortunately the Canterbury Provincial Government of the time who arranged the voyage were very lax in providing accommodation for the 300+ passengers (there was no accommodation). Only 102 perchanced to land, the balance refused and were finally landed at Lyttelton. My query:- I am interested in knowing where the BLUNT family landed (Timaru or Lyttelton). BY looking at the above file listing all the passengers who landed at Timaru I can confirm whether the BLUNT family landing at Lyttelton. (eg if the BLUNT family IS NOT on the list I will be a 'happy camper'. I do not need a list of passengers, only where the BLUNT family disembarked. Archives Christchurch have quoted me $50 for a copy of the few pages in the file which I believe is overkill especially for a pensioner, their minimum cost (didn't know I was paying for the earthquake damage).
