This has me interested, I see that Richard Hutchins died in 1830, this was half way through my ancestors apprenticeship. I am in possession of a copy of both his (Thomas Stickland) indenture papers and a letter of declaration from the Justices of the Peace in Lymington regarding him being apprenticed to Richard Hutchins, who is named on both documents.
Regards your comment on people moving distances to relocate, during the period 1756 until 1814/5
Lymington was a garrisoned town, due to fear of invasion by revolutionary France, these units included the South Hants Militia, so somebody moving up the coast from Alverstoke(Gosport) would not be unusual, especially as Blacksmiths would have been in demand here, ie in 1784 the 1st Dragoon Guards were stationed in Lymington.
My interest in your ancestor resides in the interest I have in my Lymington family  particularly Thomas Stickland who went from being born in the poorhouse to running his own Blacksmith business as well at some time being a Publican, and the fact that I still live in Lymington where my family have been for at least 260 yrs.
Hope this is of some help or interest.

Might be a coincident but my GGG Grandfather Thomas Stickland was apprenticed in 1826 in Lymington to a blacksmith named Richard Hutchins.

Interesting to note that Pete states that his GGG Grandfather John Carpender was married to a Jenny Pearce, on my GGG Grandfather Edward Pearce's marriage to Sarah  Thorne or Thomas....Boldre 1818, a John Carpender is recorded as a witness (along with Ann Lowe).I suspect that Jenny and Edward were siblings.

Me again, I believe that that Edward Pearce b.1782 was married to a Sarah Thomas or Thorne I have tried to read the parish records but the writing is poor, so this is my guess....

Hi Jess, Edward Pearce and wife Sarah were living in 1851 in Lymington (Vienna Place) his occupation was then, as in 1841 a Chimney sweep. A son Edward was married to Sarah Anne Hendey at Boldre church on April 13th 1846, on the wedding cert his (fathers) profession is a sweep. There then followed two more Edward Pearce's, a Walter, a Kenneth Edward, then me, all Lymington Residents. I even have a nephew Edward.I think old Edward's age on the cencus reports are suspect , I have found this problem with other people, however Sarah's age is consistent. Greetings from Lymington.Mick Pearce
