Ormans of Dorset ORMAN family origins in Dorset Jill Coulthard sent me this document about the origins of the Orman name which is common in Verwood in Dorset. She received it from someone with this surname she met at a family history fair. The story tells of how this family of Ormans derived its name from Ormandy (and other spellings) and in particular Miles Ormandy, the parish clerk of Hampreston, a village about 6 miles from Verwood. A Miles Bowness apparently from Windermere, Westmorland, was appointed Vicar of Hampreston in 1614 and it is believed Miles Ormandy was a kinsman who came down to assist him, but which must have been at a much later stage as the only Miles Ormandy (based on the on IGI) was baptised 1612 in Ulverston. Before too many years the family had dropped the DY and become Orman. First Generation 1. Richard Orman (or Ormundie) We found three children of Richard who we are told came to Dorset. SOURCES I.G.I. on net Supposition Richard Orman (or Ormundie) had the following children: 2 i. Miles Orman, born about 1612, Ulverston, Lancashire; married Anne Orman (nee Stevens), on 4 Apr 1638, Hampreston, Dorset. ii. Ursula (Ursella) Orman(dy) was baptized on 5 Oct 1603 in Ulverston, Lancashire. She was buried on 19 Aug 1638 in Wimborne Minster, Dorset. ANY OTHER INFORMATION 1603 Baptised as Ursula Ormundie 1638 Buried as Ursella Ormandy. We have been told by Nick Orman that she is the sister of Miles and James and a kinswoman of Miles Bowness, vicar of Hampreston. He left her £5 and left other sums to her brothers in his will. SOURCES I.G.I. on net - baptism, Wimborne Minster Parish Records Index - Burial. Nick Orman who has a copy of the will of Miles Bowness. iii. James Orman was baptized on 26 Apr 1607 in Ulverston, Lancashire. ANY OTHER INFORMATION 1607 Baptised as Jacobus Ormundie. James was left £1 in the will of Miles Bowness, vicar of Hampreston, who also left money to his sister and brother. SOURCES I.G.I. on net - Baptism Nick Orman who has a copy of the will of Miles Bowness. Second Generation 2. Miles Orman was baptized on 16 Sep 1612 in Ulverston, Lancashire. ANY OTHER INFORMATION 1612 We found Milo Ormundie baptised the son of Richardi. Nick Orman says that Miles was left £2 in the will of Miles Bowness, vicar of Hampreston, who also left money to Miles' sister and brother. Nick also says that he came to Dorset with Miles Bowness, who was probably a relative and who became Vicar of Hampreston in 1614. They came from Windermere in Westmorland. He also became parish clerk of Hampreston and we think was described as such in the Will. Miles Orman and Anne Orman (nee Stevens) were married on 4 Apr 1638 in Hampreston, Dorset. Anne Orman (nee Stevens) was buried on 5 Apr 1641 in Hampreston, Dorset. Miles Orman and Anne Orman (nee Stevens) had the following children: 4 i. Richard Orman, baptised 8 Apr 1638, Hampreston Area, Dorset; Buried 31 Jul 1685, Wimborne St. Giles, Dorset. ii. Ursula Orman was baptized on 14 Mar 1639/40 in Hampreston, Dorset. We found the baptism of William Ormandye with a father Miles. If our Miles is the father of this child, he must have married a second time, because his first wife died in 1641. 3 i. William Orman(dye), baptised 26 Dec 1655, Wimborne, Dorset. Nick Orman also found a Miles son of William, which seems to confirm the second marriage.

  • Dorset & South Wiltshire
    Groundwater Situation Report Wessex (Dorset & South Wiltshire) Update 12th September 2017 Current situation Current forecast risk of groundwater flooding There are currently no groundwater flood alerts for Salisbury Plain, Cranborne Chase and the West of Dorset. The latest summary of the water situation in the South West, giving details of the rainfall, groundwater levels and river flows, can found on the GOV.UK website. The link to these pages is below: August finished much drier than it started. Overall for the month the long term average (LTA) for August was ‘normal’ at 95% LTA, 62 mm. The rivers responded well to the rainfall and most flows reflect the geographical distribution of the rainfall, drier in the north and west and wetter in the south and east. Most rivers are now ‘normal’ for the time of year though South Newton on the groundwater dominated Chalk is ‘below normal’ for the time of year. The groundwater sites show a mixed response with some groundwater sites responding to the wetter than average summer, 134% LTA, whilst others on the Chalk and Greater Oolite are still ‘notably low. Several boreholes have received significant recharge this month and were still increasing at month end others while still receding are doing so at a lower rate. Sites on the Greater Oolite and Chalk are ‘notably low’ for the time of year. Many others are ‘normal’ with the exception of Kingston Russell Road, situated in the West Dorset catchment, which was ‘notably high’. In the West of Dorset, the level at the Kingston Russell borehole, on 12/09/2017, was 105.760 metres above sea level (mAOD).

  • EDAS Journal Vol 4
    DORSET HISTORY ESSAYS, REPORTS, & TRANSCRIPTIONS Edited by John W. Day EDAS Journal Vol 4 Date: 12th September 2015 EAST DORSET ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY Preface This collection of historical essays has been composed by members of the East Dorset Antiquarian Society as part of the 30th anniversary falling March 2013. The society evolved from the Wimborne Educational Association lectures on archaeology by David Johnston and Tim Schadla-Hall and Dorset History by Jude James. Of paramount importance in the inception and growth was Norman Field and Martin Green. Regrettably several founder members have passed away, but Tim still gives us occasional lectures and Martin remains a much valued member. The original 12 member committee were Martin Green, Haydn Everall, Ann Sims, Teresa Hall, Denise Bicheno, Ruth Clipson (who organised a week on Hadrians wall, our first field trip) Sylvia Church, now Mrs Frith (who with Roy played an important part in our excavation of the “magic well” at Hazel Bryant) and Della, membership secretary and myself. Members included Henry Cole, Len and Pam Norris who remain active with us today, and Allan Cosgrove whom we still see about Wimborne and Ian Hewitt now a lecturer at Bournemouth University, who occasionally gives us a talk. Popular was Phil Cole who wrote the most fascinating poems. Currently we are advantaged by Lilian Ladle, Graham Adams, Bryan Popple, Helen Brickell, Peter Walker, Andrew Morgan, Brian Maynard, Dave Stewart, Stephen Smith and Karen Winsor, helping to establish a strong committee in a society of nearly 200 enthused members. Judicious administration ensures a mixture of long standing committee members and new faces, thus bringing fresh blood to a stable group.
