Thanks verymuch for those answers.
I wonder if Major Scott used to live in a bungalow in the grounds of New Lodge?
I seem to remember that my Windsor Doctor was a Doctor Scott who had his surgery in Sheet Street Windsor. I suspect that he may be related.
Perhaps I am confusing him with Dunbar who lived at the bungalow near Nobscrook farm.
* This is a bit previous. I haven’t examined a map yet.
All rather confusing Things seem to have moved or been demolished.

Mrs. Mrs. Chilcott, of Winkfield?
‘ Curiously enough, the original blues shown by Miss Frances Simpson were the progeny of a blue paired with a tabby, but the remaining two of the litter were tabbies. One of these kittens was quickly bought at its catalogue price, Miss Frances Simpson buying in the other herself, from which have been bred many well-known blues. Mrs. W. R. Hawkins' Wooloomooloo and Mrs. H. B. Thompson's Don Juan were both very celebrated sires in the early days of the blue, and many prize-winners trace their ancestry to one or other of them. Big Ben, a son of. Blue Boy II., owned by Miss Frances Simpson, has sired numbers of famous kittens since the year 1908, when he was a prize-winner in the kitten class at the Crystal Palace. He has a massive broad head, with beautiful orange eyes; and his kitten Cherub, owned by Mrs. Chilcott, of Winkfield, Windsor Forest, bids fair to become a magnificent specimen, with its wonderful ruff and coat, …….’
Please can anyone state whereabouts in Winkfield Mrs. Chilcott lived?

« on: Tuesday 18 November 25 15:28 GMT (UK) »Look on Drift Road near New Lodge. It's on the north side of the road, now site of a number of newer cottages and businesses.
It may have been part of the the New Lodge estate at that date. I've seen the name of Captain or Mr van de Weyer crop up.

Thanks Nell
I think this could be the land owner
Captain Van de Weyer, who has just been promoted to his present rank in the 3rd Batt. Royal Berks Regt, has been appointed to the Company ...

I was trying to find the names of the occupants of the farm.
I no longer have a sub for Ancestry and was hoping that somebody could help me out by checking on the 1881 to 1911 censuses.

Could Hawshill farm on what is now known as the Drift Road be the one?
Is it possible to find out who the farm was owned/ occupied by?

I was thinking that she may be related to
Thomas William married Lucy Annie Wise on October 20, 1898. abt 1901 he lived at Strode Road Old Windsor He and his wife had four children during their marriage. He died October 13, 1944, age 73.
The address given on his death cert was The Coach & Horses, Oxford road Windsor.
I’ll look for more detail
