Thre is a Kilvert Society in Herefordshire.
Kilvert himself came from WIltshire to the Welsh Borders, but the Kilvert Society have lots of info about him, his family and know nearly everything he was doing through his rather short life.
There is also a book called Kilvert the Victorian by Lockwood

Excellent, EBN,
I think I may well make contact with that Society, and also look up that book by Lockwood.  My summer was somehow lit up by my brief stay in Hay/Clyro on the Kilvert trail.
Thanks so much for that...
Keith
