Im the eldest son of Mrs. Catherine Spencer, I have read on the genealogical web site that a Mr. Denton is after information about her death. I also knew the person responsible for her death Len lovelock also known as (Sprat).At this moment Im curious as to why someone wishes to inquire into my mothers death after 52 years.

I am looking for genelogy information. The period I am looking at is 1850 to 1910. I know they were Romanies and bought property in Tadley but do not know whereabouts although I think it may have been in Mulford's Hill area of Tadley. They lived in Kingsclere/Wolverton/Tadley and Lambourn.

I lived in Bishops Green from 1930 until 1947. I went to Greenham School during WWII. There was plenty of excitement there during the war. I watched the first C47 take off just after 11PM during the night for D-Day.

I am at present writing a family history of the Lovelock family who lived at Ibworth and at White Lane Hannington.**In June 1958 a Leonard Lovelock (relative of mine) committed suicide near Ibworth Road. Next to his body was the body of a Mrs Catherine Spencer of North Oakley Cottages. She had also been shot. Has anybody in the area any recollection of the tragedy or any information or publication (newspaper etc)of this terrible event I would grateful for any advice.

Can anyone give me some information on Smiths Green Cottages~ Sherborne St JOhn. I believe my Grandfather was born at number 5 in 1876 but they are now numbered 162 to 166. Maybe someone can tell me when the numbers were changed and which was number five. I also need confirmation that there were not any Smiths Cottages at Monk Sherborne. My Grandad was Charles Silver so I don't know if anyone out there has any information on the Silver family

I am looking for information on my great-great grandparents. George Appleton and his wife Elizabeth Smith.****He was always known to my family as George but I cannot find anything about a George in the records (maybe a middle name?). They had a daughter~ Hester Helen in 1907. I have been told that there were a lot of Appletons in the area and my Nanna can remember George dying in the 1970's.**I know he was a broom maker and lived in a place called Heath End around the time Hester Helen was born. Hester Helen died in 1933 in Fulham~ London in childbirth - she had married Albert Victor Campbell and had a son Robin in 1931.****If anyone has any information about either the Appletons or Smiths I would be delighted as I'm really stuck.**Thanks

• Hi Linda, thanks for that. since this post the 1911 census came out and I managed to get a lot of info on the Appleton's. George had brothers called Philip, John and Alexander and a sister called Sarah - his parents were John and Laura. He was born in Baughurst in 1869. I don't know if any of your Appleton's are descended from any of these Appleton's but thanks for the reply.

• Hi Phil,
  My grandad percy Appleton had a brother called george, not sure what his Dad was called. I am sure my grandfathers Mum died in childbirth having my grandafther and her name was Charlotte Webster (but I would need to check this fact) I think my great grandfather married again and may have gone on to have more children. By Dad is called Leslie Frederick Appleton (Fredrick) after a relative and at he made broom's to sell to garden centres when I was a child. I also know a Doreen Appleton (no relative to me but I am in contact with her and could find out more from her.

My father Tom Queen~ was stationed in England in 1954 and we lived near Hannington. He and my mother~ Bettye used to visit with several friends~ and dad was an avid dart enthusiast~ even was on a team there. Some names of the darts team members were H. Pearcey~ J. Pearcey~ J. Frankham~ B. Sharps~ I believe the name of the team was White Hart 'A' team. I know one of the pubs they played at was The Swan. Since I have lost both my parents~ and have precious little information to go on...I am trying to find information on a baby brother i have buried in Hannington church yard cemetery. I have pictures of the church and I know that he was born September 1~ 1954 and died November 3~ 1954~ his name was Robert Douglas Queen...any information would be so appreciated. I also have pictures of some friends (Graham & Doreen~ Cath & Jack)of Tom & Bettye and would love to hear from someone.
