Hi Merry, The school was a part of the workhouse but sadly there are no surviving records......Just found this (see below) so maybe she was in a workhouse somewhere....But where??? Formed in 1849, the Farnham and Hartley Wintney School District was one of the few such bodies set up under a Poor Law Commissioners' scheme to encourage adjacent Unions to operate combined Poor Law Schools for children whose parents were in the workhouse. The school also took children from the adjacent Alton union. Deb |

Samuel isn't in the workhouse....he is in the Farnham & Hartley Wintney District School. I wonder if Elizabeth is there too, but has been missed off the list? The point being that Jane cannot be there (and missed off too) as it's a school and so will have no inmate adults. Up to seeing that, I was going to suggest trying to trackdown the workhouse records, to see if Jane was actually there, but missed from the listing. Merry |

Hi The wedding cert states - residing at 'Alton' for both of them. I can't remember where John was in 1881...I will have to look it up again but it was probably Tanhouse Lane, Alton. Deb |
