The Trenchard's of Dorset are my primary genealogical interest. It is difficult however to accurately interpret some of the 1887 hand writing of a John Trenchard who at that date appears to be living at SPARSHOLT FARM, ROMSEY. Inasmuch that it is difficult for me to rely upon my interpretation of that hand wriiten address, is there a fellow list member who is either able to confirm or correct my 'translation' ? Alec Palmer. Weymouth. xxviii. ii. mmi.
