    Rowlestone and Kentchurch Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study THE SKYDMORES/ SCUDAMORES OF ROWLESTONE, HEREFORDSHIRE, including their descendants at KENTCHURCH, LLANCILLO, MAGOR & EWYAS HAROLD. edited by Linda Moffatt 2016© from the original work of Warren Skidmore CITATION Please respect the author's contribution and state where you found this information if you quote it. Suggested citation The Skydmores/ Scudamores of Rowlestone, Herefordshire, including their Descendants at Kentchurch, Llancillo, Magor & Ewyas Harold, ed. Linda Moffatt 2016, at the website of the Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com'. DATES • Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS Databases of all known Skidmore and Scudamore bmds can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com PROBATE A list of all known Skidmore and Scudamore wills - many with full transcription or an abstract of its contents - can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com in the file Skidmore/Scudamore One-Name Study Probate.

  • Lower Lydbrook Easy Access Walks
    Lower Lydbrook and riverside Brief description of the walk, path conditions and facilities Lydbrook is a large village situated along a valley that runs down from the central Forest of Dean to the River Wye. The steep valley offered a source of water power (running water) and close proximity to materials such as wood, stone and iron ore. The river provided good communication and transport links before modern highways were developed. Lydbrook became a hive of industrial activity and supported three forges, a lime-kiln, tinplate works and also a wireworks which supplied a vast quantity of field telephone cable during the First World War. Lower Lydbrook became the principle coal port on the Wye, and Forest of Dean coal was shipped from here to Ross-on-Wye and Hereford. Despite Lydbrook’s industrial history, there are few signs of this today and the village is a quiet backwater. This is just a short easy access stroll on surfaced paths in the riverside park, perhaps combined with a picnic or visit to one of the nearby pubs. Start point for the walk Lydbrook riverside park is a pleasant grassy area between the road and river. It is set out on two levels, with a small car park located on the lower level (50p honesty box), and 5 seats overlooking the river. A short flight of 7 steps leads to the upper level, which can also be reached by going along the roadside pavement (no steps) and entering the site at the far end of a fence. There are another 5 seats overlooking the river.
