1. Re: Royal Gloucester Hotel, Weymouth [1]
Ann, For a number of years now I have depended on the kindness of strangers for help in tracking down our ancestors, and almost to a person those strangers have gone way beyond simple kindness. I feel a great obligation to somehow pay back. You are helping me to do some of that. Reimbursement is unnecessary, thank you though. We currently have the grandchildren with us for the weekend, and unfortunately it may be early next week before I assemble a packet for you. If for some reason you do not receiv

3. Re: Royal Gloucester Hotel, Weymouth [1]
Ann, There is a Glouster Lodge on the Esplanade (along the beach) in Weymouth. It now contains ten or twelve condominiun or cooperative-type apartments. It was previously the Glouster Hotel, in fact one of my wife's ancestors was employed there before the turn of the century. If I remember correctly, it was built originally by the Duke of Glouster as a private summer residence and hosted many of the nobility, up to and including the King and his family. If this is the place, I think you will get several
4. Re: Royal Gloucester Hotel, Weymouth [1]
Ann, My wife and I were in Weymouth at the end of May this year, and brought home some books on the area. I got a chance to glance over them this afternoon and found two old photos of Gloucester Hotel/Lodge, and some text describing its history. Among our own photos there is also a picture of the building. I will be glad to send you copies of this material via snail mail if you would like. Please contact me individually with your mailing address and I will get a packet in the mail to you. Ed Broecker

Joan who d. 1560 East Orchard ... I would be interested in knowing more about Damory Court. Was this a manor, a chapelry, a parish? Is/was it near Blandford Forum? I do not see it on a list of Dorset parishes. I am interested because it was part of a return address on a letter written about 1906. Thank you. Phyllis

The former Chedington Parish Church is now a private dwellinghouse and there is no public access to the garden. I believe that Chedington is the spelling now normally used, but Cheddington was formerly common.

10. Unidentified subject! [0.977143]
Please excuse my ignorance but I'm not too sure how this is supposed to operate but I am very keen to collaborate with others researching in the same direction! I have recently started to compile information on my family history and with much help from sources on the internet I have established that my family originated in Portesham, Dorset, UK. My Great Great Grandfather was called Joseph Godden (Bap 20 Jun 1841). If anyone has done any research on Goddens in Portesham, I would be delighted to chat
11. Re: Dorset History - Kates [0.977143]
Thank you very much for posting this very interesting petition & list of names, Thomas. At the end you say that "The above names were rearranged in alphabetical order by me and surnames spelled properly where possible." No problems with your alphabetical order but I see that you have renamed the 2 Kates as Keats. My East Lulworth ancestors used the spelling Cates - and occasionally Kates - from 1698 to 1742. I have yet to discover any of that family spelled Keats. I should be very interested in any link

14. Re: SPENCER'S of Kinson [0.977143]
Mike, The book, Dorset Smugglers, by Roger Gutteridge, shows the following listings for Spencers: Thomas Spencer of Hamble, Hampshire, servant, 1816 age 22, smuggling, no prosecution at Assizes but detained for debt to the Crown, 100 #. It also details a rather long story about an encounter on Boscombe beach in 1767 when a crew of and armed cutter, the Anson, attempted to sieze part of a cargo consisting of three tons of tea. It mentions a gunner on the Anson, James Spencer, being "very much bruised abo
15. Re: Which part of Dorset? [0.977143]
Hi Eileen, The Dorchester Record Office has a good collection of abstracted information from parish records, which would be my first stop, before I went to the parishes. They also have maps to help you locate them. There is some distance between the parishes. A driving map will help you locate Bere Regis and Sturminster Marshall. The DRO has a collection of the S&DFHS census abstracts, all the Dorset census (1841-1891) records on microfiche, parish records on microfiche and lots of other goodies. Bere
16. LDS BRITISH VITAL RECORDS INDEX [0.977143]
I have recently obtained the 5 CDs containing the above. They are good value at US$15. Inevitably, none of my ancestors seem to be in the records, which are mainly based on BT's, and are also incomplete. IGI entries are not necessarily included on the VRIs. There are some non-conformist records included. I am willing to do limited look-ups for the Dorset list. Please don't swamp me! Not all Dorset parishes are covered, but there is a list of those that appear at http://home.sprynet.com/~btomp/ldsc

Hi Rosalene I have a book called 'The Book Of Blandford Forum' which has quite a few old photo's of Blandford in the 1800's and I could scan some and send them to you if you like.

Robert Coombs was born abt 1801 in Maiden Newton and buried there on September 19th 1875. Robert was the son of Thomas Coombs and Sarah Smith and brother to my direct ancestor James. I am attempting to connect some apparently un-related Coombs in the 1881 census where the head of the household is widowed, Could anyone with access to the 61 or 71 census see if Robert was in fact resident in Maiden Newton or Frome Vauchurch at that time and provide details of family members.
