Adnepos,

A pleasure to help. I am not sure how one would go about tracing the connection with Shropshire.

All the best with your search,

Roy (June's husband)

Try: http://www.opcdorset.org/CorfeCastleFiles/CorfeCastle.htm there are a number of Smiths in the 1790 census, I think the Smiths were also i8n nearby Swanage.

Hi,

June's husband here, as she doesn't really seem interested in her family!  As you will see from previous postings there wasa Harry Stewart HORSHAM who was a farm bailiff at Countess Weir shown in the 1911 census - do you think that is your man?

There was another farm bailiff called John HORSHAM - also see postings.  A(nother?) John HORSHAM from Devon is buried in the churchyard of the 'lost village' of Tyneham, Dorset.

Regards,

Roy Martin

Paul,

Does he comment on Corfe Castle and elsewhere on Purbeck?  I am interested as some of my family come from that area, particularly the Balsons, Balstons.

I thought that it might be the cottages that I have highlighted.

Sounds as if these cottages could be near Ridge - Redcliffe is a small outcrop of the first bend of the river Frome east of Wareham.  If you go onto the Old maps  or the Interactive maps sites you will find Redcliffe farm on the outcrop, with six small cottages to the east.  These cottages lie between the farm and the tramway that ran from the Pike's claypits at Norden (and elsewhere around there) to the clay wharf on the Frome.

Dorset / Re: Electoral Rolls - Wool

I lived in Wool until 1953, at that time the Local Authority was, I believe, called Wareham and Purbeck Rural District Council (even though Wool is not in Purbeck).

Many thanks to you both.   I am amazed that I got so much information in a day

June.
