Couldn't find them in Docking but there was a couple of pages that were totally unreadable.
I will have a look under Fakenham but it will have to wait till this evening as it is too nice to be stuck in and I am off out. Let you know when I find something ok.
-
Anjo fully understand........only wish we had the nice weather here in drizzly County Down........mind you it was roasting yesterday so not too grumble.
Thank you thought for your time and trouble
Much happiness

Just gone through Fakenham pages and couldn't find any Hoste on the pages I could read anyway. I had a look on the lds site to see if they had any info and there are quite a few Hoste's listed.
I found a marriage entry for Sophia Margaret Hoste (Daughter of the family i sent you off the 1851 census)
She married George Henry Seymor abt 1863!
Sorry I couldn't be of any more help if you have any other area of Norfolk you would like me to try let me know ok.
You are the wrong end of the country I am in Waterford and today was just glorious we took the kids to the beach for the afternoon.
All the best Angela.
-
Just read your first message again while I was on the lds site I found a James R P Hoste who was the rector of Farnham in Norfolk he was born 1825 in Siteham, Norfolk
-
Ohhhhhhhhh Anjo he could possibly be one of mine lol
-
Just found something else that might interest you in the 1851 census.
George C Hoster Head 37 Curate Of Fakenham b. in Norwich
Ann Hoster Wife 24 b. Milton, Kent
Mary C Hoster Dau 3 b. Reepham, Norfolk
Ann M Hoster Dau 2 b. Reepham, Norfolk
George H Hoster Son 11 b. Ellingham, Fakenham
They also had a cook, Nursemaid, Nurse and Housemaid
living with them
I know there is an r on the end of the name but I think this fits more with what you were looking for. Its funny I found this family while looking for someone else and when I checked my emails there was the message from you Spooky or what.
Any way hope this helps you and not confuses you more.
Do you have any definate names that you are looking for? All the best Anjo
Address: Oak St, Fakenham, Walsingham
-
Even more spooky ................. it's the family I have in my tree . Only young George would have been 11 months. George snr and Ann went on to 7 other children 6 girls and 1 more boy who followed in his fathers footsteps and became Curate of Hampstead. Young George when into the Navy like his rather famous grt Uncle Sir William Hoste.
Thank you so much Anjo...........I just know I'll be back for more of you help : ) Thanks
Much happiness

Hi Daisy

Hi I have a lot of the Hoste , Walpole, Seymour, Glover family of Norfolk, Tittleshall, South Creake, Barwick etc worked out...as they are near relatives.
I am looking for all Hoste descendants of this area...
To answer someone's question Ann Hoste was the daughter of Rev Dixon Hoste and Margaret Stanforth, she married her 1st cousin Derrick Hoste
of Barwick House...they had 3 daughters, the 2nd one Lousia Jane b/d 1837. Derrick's father William and the Rev Dixon were brothers, and his mother
Anne Glover... daughter of Robert G. of Barwick and Ann Turner.
Looking to share information...and find Hoste cousins/ descendants.
-
Can you tell me where some of these names were sourced?
I am also interested in any additional information of any people you have mentioned below.
I only have Mary; Jane Margaret; and Rev Dixon Edward listed... I would like to be sure where the other information to siblings comes from
thanks,
David

My starting point was The Cambridge Seven by John Pollock, published by IVF in 1955. Information has subsequently been added/checked using the various materials now available online at ancestry.com.
-
Thanks that confirms my two separate Dixon Edward Hoste are the same person...and thus I have their line quite far back.

Rev James Richard Philip Hoste, Rector of Farnham, Surrey from abt 1871 to about 1890
(born 1825 Barwick with Sithoe ,Norfolk , son of Rev James Hoste & wife Margaret.)
married Margaret Fynes Clinton at Hatfield Herts, in 1852.
children Margaret Hoste 1870,Evelyn C Hoste 1860.
There is a Henry Francis Hoste ,born Barwick with Sithoe in 1854,he may be a son? of Rev James Hoste. Can anyone confirm? He is certainly of the smae family lineage.
THis Henry Francis Hoste was a Master Mariner , and ended up as a 'Captain' with the Pioneer Column ,This column was formed by Cecil Rhodes to go from Kimberley and venture into relatively unknown Matabeleland.The end of the column trek was where the town of Salisbury ( now Harare) was founded.
For other Hoste information look on

Rhodesia in 1890
by H. F. (Skipper) Hoste
Henry Francis Hoste was one of the older officers when at the age of 37 he was commissioned as a captain in the Pioneer Corps, but he had a wealth of unusual experience to contribute.
He was born in 1853 at Stanhoe, near Sandringham in Norfolk, the son of the Reverend W. P. Hoste, who was later Dean of St. Paul's, and a descendant of Admiral Sir William Hoste who fought as a midshipman under Nelson and commanded at a notable engagement off the island of Lissa in 1811. Hoste, after Haileybury, failed his entrance examination for the Royal Navy and joined the Merchant Navy instead, serving a three-year apprenticeship in a China tea clipper. From sail he went into steam in the service of the Union Steam Ship Company and he first visited South Africa as fourth officer of the R.M.S. Teuton. In 1877 he was a member of an expedition sponsored by the Foreign Office to enquire into the slave trade in Central Africa; Herbert, a brother of Cecil Rhodes, was another member of the party, which became the first to reach the north tip of Lake Nyasa overland. Subsequently he rejoined the Union Company as its Commodore and from 1883 to 1890 was captain of the R.M.S. Trojan. He describes below the circumstances in which he met Rhodes and joined the Pioneer Corps as Captain of 'B' Troop.
After the disbandment of the Pioneer Corps in Mashonaland he was involved in the operations against the Portuguese in Manicaland. He cast his fortunes with those of the new country, as a prospector and miner and later as a farmer. During the 1896 Rebellion he was commissioned as a major and appointed second in command of the Salisbury Field Force. He died in January 1936.
A few years before his death he compiled an account of Forty Years Ago: Rhodesia in 1890, which was clearly taken very closely from the diary he kept during his early days in the country. This diary has since disappeared but I am indebted to his grandson, Mr. P. H. Hoste-Davies, of Melsetter, for permission to publish these extracts from the later account. They have all the force of contemporary description. Some notes have been added where it has been thought necessary to clarify the text.
