Can someone please tell me where exactly is New Village at the Isle of Wight.
Is it near Freshwater ?
My grt-grt grandfather died at New Village but I cannot locate the place. Any pics of the place ?
Many thanks.
-
Do you have a name for your Gt grandfather and a date.
There appears to be no New Village, but a Newbridge is a village
on the I.O.W.

Probably best of looking for the informant, and see where she was a fortnight after the death. Name of Mary Rackett?

The 1851 census shows a Mary RACKETT, aged 60, an unmarried laundress living in New Village.
Parish of Carisbrooke, Ecclesiastical District - St Johns, Borough of Newport

In 1841 Thomas COXHEAD aged 60, a painter, is living at Clarendon Street, New Village, Carisbrooke with Elizabeth 50, George 14 and Alfred 13
Thomas was not born in Hampshire, Elizabeth and the children were.

The Enumerator's Schedule records this part of the Parish of Carisbrooke as "That part of the said parish comprising the New Village - BedfordRow - Bedford Place - Mall Field and Field Place."

There is an area described as 'New Village' in Freshwater, it's off Camp Road. I don't think it's what you're looking for as it was in Calbourne registration district, rather than Newport.

Hi,
In 1851 HO107/1663 f.213 p.8 Elizabeth COXHEAD age 62, and her son Alfred, age 22, are living in Clarendon St. New Village.
Part of the enumeration district (3d) is described as,
'comprising New Village, ( East of Gatcombe Road/ including Clarendon Street, and Melbourne Place, Pitts Field, Deadmans Lane / South side to Nodehill / Bignor Place and St Johns Terrace.'
Here is a map from 1835, which shows New Village as on Castle Road, where Clarendon Street & Place, and Melbourne Street are today.

Also searcing for Carisbrooke at http://www.old-maps.co.uk brings up a 1866 map which shows New Village at the same location :)

Hi Bill,
I wonder if you know that Deadmans Lane is now Trafalgar Road, Googling brings up some info, such as,

Deadmans Lane sounds much more interesting!

hi
Would you like me to have a look at anything for you? I live not too far from Trafalgar Road. If you need me to look at any buildings just send me a message.

I don't think the Horse and Groom, Ningwood referred to in this thread is the same as that in Pyle Street, Newport. It's about 6 miles distant.
The Horse and Groom, Ningwood is in Shalfleet Census District and the 1861 Census gives Harriett Wilkinson as the Innkeeper.

I do agree with you Steve
Many Thanks

I have just joined this forum Rover after I spotted your posting re the old Coach & Horses at Pyle St.Newport. My Great Grandfather and my Great Great Grandfather with wife and children all lived at the Coach and Horses at the same time as your family i.e. 1861. I also have a note of my family at 84 Pyle St in 1854 but not sure if this is the same addresss.
I hope you spot my posting as have not discovered how to send anyone a private message/email via this forum but I would be pleased to make that contact with you.
-
To Rover. I apologise but I have discovered that the Personal Message facility is blocked for me until I have made 3 postings. I also have a feeling that other facilities may be restricted as I can find no way to start a new topic in order to help others. It is like going to school on the first day.
I now have to make one more post to get through the first hoop . . .
-
Rover: hopefully this will count as my third posting and I will no longer be a " new boy" and you will eventually be able to send me a PM.
Re Newport Isle of Wight. It is worth remembering that in old records, many of the small villages e.g. Calbourne are listed as "Newport" as they come within it's admin. district.

I am new to this forum, but this thread was very useful to me, I was never 100% sure where New Village was, I may have confused it with Pan Estate. But, given where New Village was actually situated, I would assume someone that was buried in New Village, Carisbrooke, would actually have been buried in Mount Joy Cemetery. As far as I can remember there is no other cemetery in the area. Do you think I am correct?
Thanks
