Links added to all public pages to direct people to the top level of this website and to the Whiteparish local history section. This is to help people who find individual pages using a search engine locate the contents and index. This arises from having experienced just that problem recently while trying to find the top level index of another website that's structured in a similar way.
All Saints Church page updated to include a list of the 1838 hatchments removed from the church in the 1870 Butterfield restoration (direct link to the appropriate section of that page). A few missing illustrations at the bottom of the page have now been uploaded too.
Constance Stockman born 1653, daughter of Joseph Stockman, married Thomas Chettle 1676 aged 23, inherited and sold Titchborne Farm/Manor, Whelpley Farm, Street Farm and probably another freeholding in Whelpley Manor
Stockman - references In support of extensive detailed research of the Stockman family of Barford, Downton: (father John), son William, his sons William and Joseph, and Joseph's daughter Constance, this page summarises the most important reference material, largely from Matcham. Some later references erroneously show Constance as Joseph's widow, among them Geni, Ancestry, BritishHistoryOnline and History of Landford. There are plenty of accurate earlier records, especially her marriage record a year after her father's death in 1676 of her wedding to Thomas Chettell at St Clement Danes, Middlesex, in which she styled herself Mrs and a Spinster aged about 23. This age agrees with the Parish Register of her baptism in 1653. The use of Mrs is undoubtedly the origin of the errors, with researchers possibly not noting the term Spinster alongside. As an independent woman of age at that date she would have been Mistress Stockman even though still a spinster. There are numerous correct father-daughter references in Matcham, and among the genealogical websites, WikiTree is correct. Updated pages on each member of the family and their purchases/sales in Titchborne Manor, Titchborne Park alias Newhouse, Titchborne Farm, Dry Farm, Whelpley Farm and Street Farm, as well as the related Abbotstone House, will be uploaded as soon as possible.
