I hope someone can help me with unravelling part of my tree! I have this man on the 1851 census: George Maynard abt 1762 Ashton, Hertfordshire, England Head Niton (Isle of Wight) Hampshire (another of my long-lived relations!!) Anyway.....he has been away from Hertfordshire for several decades....... Where's this place of birth - Ashton?? A clue may be that his father was said to live at Cottered, Hertfordshire..... Fingers crossed that someone has the answer! Happy Hunting Merry |

Hi Merry I don't know about Ashton,but there is a place called Aston,it now tags onto Stevenage and lies roughly SouthWest of Cottered about 8 miles away. Glen |

On a modern map look for Junction 7 of the A1M,then look about two miles east of the junction.It's roughly at the 4o'clock position in relation to Stevenage. Glen |

I also have 30 or so county maps (more use on here most of the time though).It comes under the SG2 postcode as well,all of about eight or nine streets and a Primary School. Glen |
