The titles self explanatory really I know it's in Gloucestershire but does anyone know where? Is it a suburb of Gloucester? This was on the 1891 census so then it might have been a village in it's own right! Duncan

Are you sure that you don't mean wotton-under-edge?. South of Gloucester & north of Bristol. Looks like J14 of the m5 is the closest. Doesn't look close enough to Gloucester to be a suburb Not chasing any Mundy family from there by any chance? Pauline

Wotton is a large village/small town in its own right with church(es) comprehensive school, etc. Come off the A38 opposite the Wildfowl Trust at Slimbridge and follow the signs. It's 10-15 miles southeast of Gloucester.

It's a lovely little place. Used to live not too far away from it.
