Title: Stanfield - Verwood
Post by: Rhodie on Monday 24 August 09 14:57 BST (UK)

Hello folks
I am trying to tie in/link to the Tolpuddle Martyr Standfield - William J Standfield in 1881 aged 34 born Verwood Dorset wed to Hannah and family living Claredon Park Wilts.  Looks like they wed 1877 Bradford although Hannah Gould states born Fordingbridge.  I don't know who this William's father was, has anyone comes across this family before?
