Re: Hello from Romsey,Hampshire

I am decended from Hartley Davy b.1779 a master tailor who lived in Abbey St and also had a shop there and so did the next 3 generations.Also apparently well known in the Methodist circles. He had a road named after him,DAVY ST. which i believe was demolished around 1950's.Are there any old photos out there ? or info on the Davy family?
Am also related to Kenyon's, Eccleston's, Bradley's, Herald's, Haworth's to name a few.[/quote]

Hi Davylad
For a start of there was no Abbey St till 1792 when blind Jack o Knaresborough built the road to the Haslingden boundry. Most of the early properties date from around 1800. Davy st ran off Infant St and it now the site of the telephone exchange.
There may be photo's in the local studies dept of the library, you would need to enquire from them, they have 1000's of photo's.

Hi Retlaw
Thanks for that info,
However I think it was about 1792 he went to live in Abbey St,I have a copy of a newspaper artical saying that he came to Abbey St. in 1792 from Yorkshire.
I have been intouch with the local studies and they have been most helpful and actually have documents dating back to 1843

Re: Hello from Romsey,Hampshire

Hi Retlaw
My husband's forebears had a dubious relationship with yours. Four members of the family were transported to Tasmania for stealing from Davy's drapers (Abbey St) in 1844.
