These are the Bastardy Bonds from Sturminster Marshall taken from the
catalogue at the Dorset Record Office. Please note that there are usually
several bondsman for each woman - check the reference numbers. Bondsman were
not usually the father of the illegitmate child - they were more likely to
be relatives, friends, churchwardens, overseers etc

I have no more information on any of these entries
