Hi John,
Have you had a look at www.familyhistoryonline.net ? I found 12 results for Limming in Hampshire 1741-1839 (7 baptisms/5 burials). The costs to view the details seem very modest.

Hi John,
The registers might still be with the church; if not they will probably be in the County Record Office at Winchester.

The Hampshire GS Burial Index is included on the FamilyHistoryonline site, viewing the records is very cheap as Nanny Jan said. Not all graves had headstones, but the burial registers will indicate all burials even if there is no headstone. There are 18 Liming burials in Crondall between 1741 and 1837, plus one Limming.
There are some probate documents at the record office in Winchester for Liming of Crondall plus some other material. The catalogue can be searched here:

Can provide some useful pointers.

I descend from the John Liming born in England 1647 and died about 1697. I descend from his 2nd son William and grandson Daniel Liming who migrated in 1780 to land that became Tennessee. I have done extensive work on the Tennessee family to find living descendants. I have been working on the first son John Liming II's descendants to find living members from his line.
We do have y-DNA test results from descendants of both John II and William's line. I run the Lemon DNA project at Family Tree DNA is the US and would love to find Liming or Leming men in England to also get tested so we could find if there is a connection between families. There have been over 160 Lemon (all varient spelling) men tested with over 15 different family groups identified. Family Tree DNA will ship to all of Great Britain.
There is a man in England who has a website called http://www.englishorigenes.com/. He takes the Y-DNA match lists of people and looks at all the surnames that show up the most for a person. He then compares old English parish records for where all those surname are located together in the highest concentration. The goal of his work is to try to pin point where a surname originated.
I sent him the match list for 5 of the Liming/Leming descendants, and he has pin pointed a connection to the town of Leeming in Yorkshire with our surname and the other matching surnames that occurred in high numbers with each person. Our hapolgroup is i1 which is known to originate in Scandinavia and the vikings. Yorkshire was heavily populated by Vikings. I do know that there have been some Leeming men tested and their haplogroup was R1b2 and not Viking but from the European continent.
Anyway would love to find more men in England to get tested. Help.....

The original images of the parish registers for Crondall can be found on Ancestry in their Surrey collection. Crondall, and some of the surrounding parishes, although in Hampshire, are in the diocese of Guildford and so have been included in Surrey.
Liming records are also to be found in Crookham, Christ Church, which was formed from part of the parish of Crondall. The church was build by a builder James Liming in 1841 and there are many Limings to be found in Crookham.
Hope this helps.
