Life and Career

Detail from Behind time

In 1813 he was a farmer and horse-dealer and lived in Hungerford on the High Street. In 1814 he is also recorded as being a horse-dealer. Two years later, in 1816, he was a labourer, living in a street called Moon Lane.

According to 18th century maps, there were two southerly routes out of Hungerford, not one as at present. One ran due south from the Church, along the modern Church Way and so following roughly the line of Salisbury Road. The second road veered left at the top of the High Street along the old "Moon Lane' and Priory Road as far as De Montfort Grove. Then it continued due south, following the present public footpath, and emerged at Sanham Green Farm, to link up with the Inkpen road. It then continued to the south west until it joined up with the main road to Salisbury.[26]

In the national census of England and Wales on 6 June 1841, William, 78, Amelia, 55 and their youngest, a 2 year old (whose name is listed as ???ah in the transcription) were still living in Moon Lane. William was again listed as an agricultural labourer.

Notes

  • Immanuel's Baptism record states that his mother was Sarah, and that he was born in 1827. This cannot be correct, as Sarah died in 1797.
