Aclands of Littleham near Exeter
(Aug 09 Green)
My family descends from John Agland b:~1724; m: 16April 1750 in Littleham to Jane Pine b:~1725. The family name changed to Acland at the next generation, and has sometimes been misspelled as Ackland. I have considerable information about this direct line of descent, and would be interested in sharing data with anyone else interested in this Parish and family

John Hayes Coastguard
(Aug 06
Red)
Hi
I am researching John Hayes who live in Little Bicton Place from abt 1841. He was Married to Margaret and according to the I.G.I they were born & married about 1833 in Little Bicton, but according to the censuses (1841-1891) they both came from Ireland(no county given. The family moved to Shaldon and live at Riverside. Between 1852-61 the family moved to Hoose, (Now Hoylake, Wirral). They had 7 children John, James, William, Margaret, Ellen, Mary & Catherine all born between 1837-1852.
When the family moved to Wirral the three boys stayed (I presume as their names do not appear in 1861 with their parents only the girls.
I may have found William's marriage to a Ada Jennetta Carr in East Stonehouse in 1870 which I have not confirmed. William's occupation is given as mariner, no sign of John or James.
Any help will be gratefully appreciated.

Dixon family
(May 06
Red)
I am hoping to find any information on Robert Dixon, seaman, whose daughter Elizabeth gave Littleham as her residence when she married in Northumberland in 1900 at the age of 30-33. She was apparently born in North Shields, and another family name was possibly Angus. Has anyone come across them in their research.

Prouse/Prowse; Littleham, Exmouth
(Apr 06
Red)
I have, so far, got back as far as John Prouse b. 1785; Littleham, Exmouth, who married Jane Acland b. Sept 1785; Littleham, Exmouth. I am particularly interested in any info about this John Prouse's parents & further back. The line I have traced through to my mother-in-law is through their son, Richard (b.Nov 1822, Littleham, Exmouth). I know this branch of the Prouse family lived in this area for at least 150yrs. Any further info would be very gratefully received.
