Part - Biddlecombe of Hampshire

This is part of a series of articles about the Families of Biddlecombe and variations of that name. The introduction to the series is Families of Biddlecombe and variations of that name - START. If you have not visited the introduction yet might I suggest that you do so.
Biddlecombe of Hampshire
An exploration of his will and the Beneficiaries mentioned therein. Followed by expanding the research to include him and his family, together with any links to other Biddlecombe families in the series.

The ESRI Story Map is repeated in Locations as is its introduction, but otherwise I will try to avoid duplication, referring you back to the first part instead.

Locations
The location of an event has a significant importance when looking at the past through the lens of a Family Tree. A wide family with the same surname can have many individuals with the same name and approximately the same birth year, particularly with Christian names either generally popular or past down for generations through the family. Each with their own family, and, to confuse things further, frequently with the same names for parents through the generations. Sometimes it is only the location that can separate one John from another.
This section explores some of those locations to help keep the history correct, and to share my exploration and findings.
ESRI Story Map
ESRI Story Map
Below is, in part the culmination of my 'perambulation of the borders' of the Canford Manor, plotted on a single map so as to see the true extent of the huge manor. It is a stand alone ESRI Story Map so there will inevitably be repetition.
You can also open the ESRI Story Map An exploration of Biddlecomb(e) families by clicking on the link, which will open a new page.
Planned future additions to the story are the locations of all of the people mentioned in this article for whom I can establish a location. Some are already plotted. Others include Biddlecomb(e)'s with later stories and records. All being slowly expanded.
Scroll down the insert to see the map, which can also be expanded.
Winkton
Winkton, Christchurch, Hampshire
An old OS Map 25" from the National Library of Scotland, focused on Winkton Common just North of Christchurch, then in Hampshire, but now in Dorset.
The Saxton's 1575 Map of Hampshire does not show Winkton as it is too small, but Christchurch is shown, circled in blue, at the convergence of the Stoure flu and Avon flu (rivers).
Records
Next action is to put the families names into my Ancestry Tree to see if there are any correlations.
Some Ancestry Trees have Christopher Biddlecomb with his wife Cisley and son John.
Some give the place of birth of John as being Downton in Wiltshire, which could be another Biddlecomb family. There is a Downton between Christchurch and Milford, towards the South coast of Hampshire, south of the New Forest. However, the Downton in Wiltshire, albeit not far from the Hampshire boarder, is near Whiteparish. Downton is mentioned in one of the Turnpike articles on this site.
Then searching for records in FindMyPast which has the data from the Hampshire Genealogical Society.
