    Hi mparker4 I cant read yr note clearly because it is flowing into the 'tips' section of the page for some reason - however - you may be correct - but I am curious about Jane Hamilton - we have a family 'rumour' that somehow we are connected to Admiral Lord Nelson - and in fact we have some Nelson memorabilia floating around in our family - a snuffbox, ceremonial sword, paintings etc - the family 'rumour' is that the connection is through Nelson's mistress Emma Hamilton - I would be fascinated if we could make that connection. Do you have any idea?? Gretchen Harris (nvanderknok3488)
    I was born in Rugby Warwickshire, which is only abt 20 miles away from Market Harborough!! Gretchen

The village stands on the left bank of Blackwater river, and on the Braintree railway, adjacent to Braintree; forms a suburb of that town; consists chiefly of one long street; and is a seat of petty sessions.

The parish includes also Bocking-street and Bocking-Church-street, ¾ and 2 miles distant from Braintree, both with post offices under that town, and the former situated on the branch Roman road from Chelmsford. ...
