Fernhill, Shaugh Prior
« on: Tuesday 30 April 13 01:04 BST (UK) »
I descend from the Damerell and Maddock families who leased the farm Fernhill at Shaugh Prior for most of the 1800s. Can anyone tell me if Fernhill still exists and exactly where?

Have you tried googlemaps?
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

I found Fernhill Wood on googlemap which is about 3 km south of Shaugh. Am thinking this is the area. On postcode finder I found a Ferndown but not Fernhill.
Thanks Lizdb and Gadget for your input.

Hi

Try Fern Hill on postcode finder - it's half way between Shaugh Prior and Plympton. I must have gone past it many times when I lived down there!

Postcode finder for Fern Hill (previously referenced)  has the address just to the SW of  the wood  - close to the Woodside Animal Welfare Tust.

Hi

This was my Husband's family home. It was last owned by the Luscombe's via the Baskerville's. It was destroyed earlier last century & a bungelow built.

Emily Ellen Damerell married John Luscombe & had Emmanuel Richard Luscombe my Husband's Great Grandad. He died in the house in 1927. Emmanuel married Susannah Jane Baskerville & her parents lived there. There is a photo of all the Baskerville children taken at the house. Each child got a copy & to this day one resides in the bungelow. No idea why, it may have been the parent's copy. I have pictures of it.

How are you related? Let me know if I can help with your research  ;)

Regards Suzanne.
