Mrs S kicked him out within a year of their marriage, you reckon?

Unfortunately not. There are still plenty of little mysteries out there, such as why George Snook married Mary Fielder in 1816 (albeit April Fool's Day!) and apparently stayed alive until his Beaulieu death in 1826, but didn't show up on the Comyn Survey in 1817. There's a house (no.23) belonging to Mrs Snook (who would appear to be Mary Fielder as was) but no sign of the old man.
I'm happy to imagine that he moved in with his new wife on their marriage and that she was the rightful owner of the property, but I'd have thought he might have got at least a mention. Maybe he always went for a smoke in his shed whenever the vicar popped round and Mrs S accidentally forgot to report that he was still alive?

Thanks, we did Jude's stuff earlier on this thread (yes, it's a long thread, I know!). I've been in touch with Jude via email too.

Sorry, just had another look at the 1851 census info and spotted that Charlotte was 1, not "baby". Can't remember now where I got that from!
So yes, she may well have been 2 by November 1851.
I've forgotten the relationship between Beaulieu, Boldre and Lymington. I know where they are geographically, but why does there seem such a bewildering interchange of locations on official documents? Was Lymington "under" Beaulieu, for instance?

Now why would I want to leave the planet while you're still coming up with gold dust like this??
I think William and Ann (nee Picket) who croaked at Furzey Lodge are definitely mine - I certainly didn't have Ann's demise recorded previously.
Charlotte might be too, though it doesn't tally 100%. In the 1851 census, Henry Snook (son of William and Ann above) was living in Bath Rd, Lymington with his wife and children, Elizabeth Ann (2) and Charlotte ("baby"). I'd recorded that Charlotte died in 1851, but I assumed she hadn't reached her first birthday. I don't have a baptism record for her so if she was less than 12 months old at census time a November death might get her to 18 months old. Any thoughts? When exactly was "Census Night" in 1851? What generally constituted "baby" status?
I think the Bucklers Hard pair are related to my wife's blood-line, but that branch of the family doesn't come into the picture for me again until around 1900 - and only peripherally so then.
I don't know where the other two come from.
But thanks! Keep 'em coming!

I haven't come across any Sunninghill Snooks in my travels yet - it's bit of a leap from Beaulieu Rails to the commuter belt! Though I guess poaching from Windsor Great Park is pretty much the same as doing it in the New Forest.
But then there are so many of 'em!
What era are we talking about?

I'm liking the sound of Miss Tripup potentially as George's first wife and the mother of William, b.1798. Any more where that came from? Like dozens more kids from the same stable? Mary's DOB? George's parents?
