NB In case of any confusion with dates, please note that January 1st was only accepted as being the first day of the new year from 1752. Prior to this, the new year in Britain started on March 25th. Therefore the date which followed 24 March 1650 was 25 March 1651. This should clarify instances of children appearing to have been born before their parents married. For example, Robert Corbett married Elizabeth Keene 13 October 1625. Their daughter Joyce Corbett was christened 24 February 1625 (4 months after their marriage).
The intention of this site is to be a central resource site for anyone with connections to Adlestrop, Gloucestershire to further research their family history.
The site will contain names of those persons born, married or buried in Adlestrop; in employment in Adlestrop; living in Adlestrop; in any other way connected to Adlestrop. Information will be taken from Parish Registers, Censuses, Electoral Rolls, Archived Documents - in fact anywhere I find information on Adlestrop.
So, to summarise, if it relates to the history of the people of Adlestrop, it will (eventually!) be on this site!
My personal connection to Adlestrop is through my Grandfather, William Sedgley Turner (1887-1971) who was born and lived for some years in Adlestrop.
Please keep returning to this site, as it is in its infancy - I will be adding information on a regular basis.
Finally - it is entirely possible that errors may be made in transcription etc - if you spot a possible error, please contact me!
Also, I would love to hear from anyone with family connections to Adlestrop, no matter how recent they are. Photographs of residents, and any descriptions, stories etc would be extremely welcome!
Thanks,
Paul
