The Camp on Nursling Common, Hampshire - 1795

The Camp

In the Parish Register for Nursling, there are several references to 'the Camp' or 'from the Camp', without any clear explanation of where or what the Camp was. From context it is assumed to be a place.

The Camp, why

I have yet to find any clear reason for the Camp, but looking at the history of the time may provide some insight.

The French Revolution (1789–1799) and the French Revolutionary Wars (1792–1802) caused considerably disquiet in the politics of Britain at the time.

Armies were raised in preparation, for defense against invasion by France.

See British Regiments and the Men Who Led Them 1793-1815: the "Ephemeral Corps" 1793-1796

I assume there was a massing of families associated with those regiments within Hampshire and other Counties along the South Coast.

The Camp, evidence

This is evident in the sudden increase in baptisms and burials found in the Parish Register for Nursling.

The records refer to 'from the Camp' but don't explicitly state if that is Toot Hill Camp or some other area.

The Camp seems to have been set up sometime shortly before August 1795.

Sopley, Hampshire

Introduction

It is the subject of my One Place Study of Sopley. 

Follow this link to jump drectly to my The Next Generation (TNG) database.

Ten generations ago, John Tilley was born in or nearby the small hamlet of Sopley, Hampshire, England, and the year was 1665. John, and his place in our Family Tree, was the catalyst for the article 'The Tilley Family Migration' and subsequently this article and One Place Study of Sopley held in TNG.

Sopley is an ancient settlement going back to before the Doomsday book and is described in this article. It is on the edge of the New Forest. The nearby area is sometimes in Hampshire and sometimes in Dorset depending on various boundary changes. Most of the employment in the area would have been engaged in either rural activities or supporting the large number of family estates in the area. Sopley Park and Winkton House being a couple of the closest.

Tithe Apportionment - Parish of Sopley, Hampshire

Introduction

Tithe Apportionment

Time for a bit of time travel. Away from the Vikings, William the Conqueror, and the Domesday Book. Not all the way to the current day but to another significant change in the rural community.

Whereas an Agreement for the COMPUTATION of TITHES in the Parish of Sopley in the County of Southampton was, on the Eighteenth day of June  in the Year One Thousand Eight Hundred and Thirty Nine confirmed by the Tithe Commissioners for England and Wales, of which Agreement, with the schedule thereunto annexed, ...

A jump to 18/06/1839 form 1086 in a single leap, missing out the Inclosure Acts of 1773 et al. Sometimes known as the Enclosure Acts.

I have recently purchased a copy of the Sopley Tithe Map and Award from the Hampshire Record Office. This is the record of the Tithe Survey for the Sopley area.

A Study of the Parish of Millbrook, Hampshire

My Millbrook Parish one place study The beginning was actually just a restart triggered by a post in the Facebook group of Guild of One-Name Studies by Karen Heenan-Davies on 7 August 2018. 

'I want to do analysis and maps of the BMD and census records to show how my surname Heenan changed geographically over time'

Well that got me thinking about how I had started plotting the Enumerators route of the 1841 Census of Millbrook. It was very rural then.

Link that to thoughts of GIS and BIM, and I join the conversation.

Later that day I start a new Google Map of Millbrook and using the Census images on Ancestry I start plotting the routes and key named places. I also start a spreadsheet which will expand the data extracted from the Census and also provide the upload to ESRI for the interactive ARCGIS Mapping.
