EFFORD Efford stands on high ground above the Laira estuary of the River Plym and variously offers views over long distances: to the north across Dartmoor, to the east and south-east across the South Hams of Devon. The predominance of the housing stock, dates from the early post war period, albeit, several modern developments. Historically the area around Efford had military importance. Efford Fort was one of the ring of Victorian Palmerston's Follies built to provide defence from risk of French invasion. The area was also heavily occupied by the American army during the preparations for D-Day. This is remembered by the naming of a part of Efford, as Little America. Streets there were given names such as California Gardens, Oregon Way etc. These names were retained when the current houses, were built in the 1970s. Ease of access is given to the A38, via The Embankment and Delamere Road, to the south and north, whilst Plymouth City Centre is approximately 3 miles away. High View School is a contemporary primary school, whilst 11 – 18 year olds, can usually attend Lipson Vale Community College. Torridge Way provides, local amenities, (as does the Tesco Express, in nearby Higher Compton. PLYMOUTH Plymouth is a city with one of the largest natural harbours in the world. To the north is the Dartmoor National Park extending to over 300 square miles which provides excellent recreational facilities. Plymouth itself has a population of well over 250 ,000 and has a full range of shopping, educational and sporting facilities. There is a mainline train service to London Paddington and to Penzance in Cornwall. Brittany Ferries operates seasonal services from Plymouth to France and northern Spain.

We found that the one form of spotting changed abruptly to the other in a few yards without any barrier between them and that the distinction between the two increased as they approached each other (the "reversedine " effect). TheseThese features features persistedpersisted thethe followingfollowing year, yet the point of transition had shifted; for the East Cornish type had advanced three miles eastwards, indicating that the two spot-distributions represent alternative types of stabilisation. This situation is so exceptional that it seemed essential to test whether or not it is widespread along the interface between the Southern English and East Cornish forms and if it were maintained in subsequent years.

Condon Issued to the Subscribers by Phillimore & Co., Ltd. 124, Chancery Lane. 1915- PREFACE. Six years have elapsed since tlie first volume of Devonshire Marriage Registers was issued and during those years the work- has been practically at a standstill, in strange contrast to the adjoining counties of Cornwall, Somerset, and Dorset, where the Marriage Registers of 133, 107 and 58 parishes respectively have now been printed. This lack of progress in Devon has been due partly to the death of Mr. W. P. W. Phillimore to whose inception the entire Series is due and who edited the first volume, but chiefly to the poor support forthcoming from Devon men, in comparison with that accorded to the Series in other counties by those interested in their Records. Thus the first volume for Devonshire was issued at a substantial loss. Now that the work has been resumed, it is hoped that the support received will be more proportionate to the size and importance of the county, and so will enable the Devonshire Marriage Registers to be printed on a uniform plan and with such regularity of output as will render them safe from further loss and readily accessible to the student and genealogical searcher.

In 1907 we commenced a research for family history, necessary to join some American patriotic organization. At that time it was not easy, for only a few persons, compara­ tively speaking, had considered the importance of gathering data or preserving family history, so our research extended through many volumes of books and magazines, and innumerable pages were turned before efforts were rewarded which enabled us to connect the past with the present.

The canons held a further 2 hides there (DB, i. 100c; Devon § 1. 17). Robert Bastard had two villeins ‘on the land of St Peter of Plympton’ at an unspecified location. Before 1066 the villeins had belonged to Alwin, Robert’s predecessor in several manors (DB, i. 113c; § 29. 10). There is 1 See the statistics in Knowles and Hadcock, passim. 2 It is likely that the priory retained items from the pre-Conquest archive of the minster.
