Hi Barbara,

To be honest, no, I use 2 programs, both freeware and called "Parish Locator" which I've always found very useful (as I don't always connect to the internet).  Did try to look parishes within 5 miles of Hitchin on both (a distance which always seems realistic to me), but according to my program, Knebworth is within 10 (abt 7.5)...just goes to show that sometimes databases aren't as accurate as we like to think they are!  ???

Thanks again for the help...

Regards,

Patricia

Hello Patricia
Hertfordshire this is it obviously no ?
May be this is too late, but Neboth is also a family name.
It could be written as Nebout, Nebbout and related to jewsih genealogy.
Nom de Tribu: Nabitz origine berbère qui viendrait du nom de différentes tribus du département de Constantine en Algérie   Autres orthographes :Nabet ,Nabets, Nabit , Nebout , Neboth
They came originally from south of France, and they are quite numerous ..... ::)

Quite no simple, I 'm myself looking for Gibraltar in the year 1800 and I 'am totally lost...
Good luck.

It's perfectly possible that the locals called the place 'Kneb'oth' and someone wrote it as Neboth.

Lydia Parker? Born Herts?

Same village as the Herts "Robin Hood" called "Jack O'legs"?
