My maternal ancestors are from your beautiful village and wondered if anyone has any connections to them or knows anything interesting about them. My grandmother was Ethel Eliza Hodges 1878 - father Leonard James Hodges born 1860 son of James Hodges born 1822 and his wife Mary Ann Hodges (nee Neville). They may have lived in Overend or Duke Street. I hope to visit Elton for the second time quite soon. Kind regards Angela Verity from Nottingham

I have a local history website about Dogsthorpe, a hamlet which is now part of Peterborough. www.dogsthorpe.com. It contains lots of information about the history of the place and the people who live there.

I am descended from the family of John and Mary (nee Nichols)WARD married October 1801 in Castor, does any one have any connection to this family as I would like to go back further and have searched records offices and websites but can't find anything earlier than this marriage so suspect they came from a different village to the one they married in.

I am looking for any info on the family name of Lilley. I have traced this line back to 1739. They seem to hail from the Thorney area ~ although I am really interested in any info regarding them in the Newborough / Thornhaugh areas.**I know they were a large family and I have spent many an hour trying to tie ends together .

On my recent tour of UK in September/October (2008) I visited Nassington as I recalled distant memories of a few childhood visits and recollections that family roots were tied up with the village. What a delightful place.**Doing some research on my return to New Zealand I find my Great Gran~ Maria Foster was born there in 1867. Her mother's maiden name was Betsy Bream. Great Gran had 2 brothers Bill (who had a daughter Annie & 2 sons~ Tom & Albert) and Henry (married Gladys & had 11 children?) and 3 sisters~ Sarah~ Nancy and Catherine. Albert worked at Mould's Butchers & apparently Sarah married Elijah Starsmore~ Nancy never married but lived with Sarah & Elijah and Catherine went to London and died there. My Great gran~ Maria Foster~ left Nassington and came to earl Shilton (Leics) to find work and ended up marrying William Nicholls in St Simon & St Judes church.**Sarah & Elijah had 1 daughter Mabel (married Bert Jackson and 2 sons Alec & Roy). Alec became Major in the army (retiring in Salisbury) Roy was an engineer in Peterborough. Nellie Kettle~ Violet & Elizabeth Foster were Great Gran's cousins in Peterborough.**I wonder if this information will help anyone to trace their roots or fills any gaps. **It would be great to hear from "family members" to help me add to the history of the Bream/Foster/Nicholls tree.**I can be reached at: kiwicom@xtra.co.nz**Regards~Ian Scott~ Havelock North~ NZ

I came on to the site to see if I could see any names from my era at the school~(Old Fletton County Primary School as it was called before it was demolished and transferred to the Grammar school on the corner of London Road and High Street). It will be realised that I was at school a few years ago~ (I left in April 1951). I wonder is there anyone out there from then.

Seeking information on my Gt Gt Grandfather John Strickland born 1809 Wells Somerset died 1861 Peterborough. He was a Master Tailor and Lay Clerk at the Cathedral living at St John?s Street. He married Mary Ann Pheasant in 1833~ she was born 1808 Peterborough and died 1892. Does anyone know if William Strickland born 1807 Hampshire Painter and Gilder married to Eliza living at 36 Cowgate Peterborough was related to John? Finally~ does anyone have any old photographs of the Strickland/Pheasant families would be interested to hear from you? Gillian**
