We can now look forward with expectation and hope for what 2014 will bring beyond celebrating the centenary of the beginning of World War I. Especially for those who may be new at this game – and perhaps even for our “veterans”, as well – I have begun another ongoing subject for the ‘In Days of Yore’ feature. As you may have realised over the last several issues, this regular series now deals with genealogical sources. We started with the Last Will and Testament, and progressed through Censuses, and now turn our attention to Civil Registration. With this current journal we examine the origins of the system in this time quite astounded - at the numerous country, and, as an addition, a list of positive comments I continue to receive, Hampshire parishes with their registration especially as I enjoy the creativity side of the districts (RDs) will be featured over the next enterprise.

  • The Mediaeval Paving Tiles of the Alton Area of N. E. Hampshire

    The Mediaeval Paving Tiles of the Alton Area of N. E. Hampshire

    PAPERS AND PROCEEDINGS 289 THE MEDIAEVAL PAVING TILES OF THE ALTON AREA OF N.E. HAMPSHIRE. By THE REV. G. E. C. KNAPP. HE interest of the writer in the study of Mediaeval Paving Tiles was aroused by the paper on the Tiles of Titchfield TAbbey in the Proceedings of the Hampshire Archaeological Society, Vol. XVII, Part I, and by Dr. and Mrs. A. R. Green, without whose help and encouragement the writer would not have embarked on the task of recording the tiles found in this part of the County, and to whom any value which the paper may have is due. The writer found ready assistance in this local research in a group of young people in whom, as part of their preparation for Confirmation, he was trying to arouse an interest in the inheritance which is ours in our ancient churches. The writer would record his appreciation of the help of the Misses Diana and Jennifer French, who traced many of the tiles and prepared the drawings for the illustration of this paper. Starting with our own church at Hartley Mauditt, the tiles there were recorded, and then, going further afield, Selborne was the objective. But the interest and enthusiasm of the young tile hunters was heightened by the discovery of further tiles in the churches of Faringdon and Binsted, which, Dr. Green assured us, had not been recorded in any of the books or reports on the Church treasures of Hampshire. The following churches in the Alton area have been inspected, those containing mediaeval tiles being shown in block letters : New Alresford, Old Alresford, ALTON ST.
