Gloucestershire Lookup Requests / Re: Jacksons of Windrush

Hi, I'm hoping that there is still someone around from this thread who might have some pointers for me.
I lived at Ley Mary Farm (the 'Lammarys' mentioned upthread) as a small child (I lived in a house that had been converted from one of the original barns in the late nineteen-seventies), and am doing some research into the previous inhabitants - I wonder if anyone can help me? I have found information from the census but this only goes back so far and I'm interested in finding out the inhabitants (including servants/staff) going back all the way to the construction of the farm. Is it possible to find this?
I am also interested in finding out whether there were any accidents or untoward incidents in the farm at any point as I had some rather strange experiences as a child and am interested in finding out whether there's any historical/supernatural basis for these. (I am sceptical about the supernatural but would love to find out whether there really is a reason for the things I experienced!)
Many thanks
