101	Although there's no hard evidence that this burial is Benjamin's son, there's no-one obvious else it could be.	Martell, Jeremiah (I3510)
102	Ancestry.com transcribe the date as 20 Oct, but the register is clear enough: "le vint cinq^me jour d'Octobre 1778".	Mollet, Esther (I1486)
103	Ancestry.com transcribe the place of birth as given on the 1881 census as St Genioxe, France. Although there's no such place, I'm struggling to do better. His wife's place of birth is probably Saint-Brieuc in Côtes d'Armor (though that's not clear either), which suggests he may have been from Brittany too.	Gosselin, Eugène Pierre (I2041)
104	Ann adopted the surname Willis after her mother married Thomas Willis.	Wyatt, Ann Eliza (I1788)
105	Ann was a widow	Family F982
106	Ann's baptism lists her parents as Daniel and Margaret, i.e. Daniel's eldest son's child. This would make her implausibly close to Mary Anne, and the census describes her as Daniel & Elizabeth's child.	Barfoot, Hannah Elizabeth (I5609)
107	Anstice leaves legacies in her will to many people, but does not say how any of them are related. Her executor is William Flight whose wife, Alice's maiden name was Hunt. It would just be possible for Alice to be a daughter of Anstice's marriage to Anthony Hunt, though it would make Alice just 15 when she married; that's not inconceivable, though, as William and Alice seem to have had children over 25 years, suggesting she was fairly young when they married. It's also possible that Alice was a daughter was a daughter of Anstice's marriage to John Russell, and Alice adopted the surname Hunt when her mother remarried. Another possibility is that Alice was Anstice's step-daughter, the daughter of Anthony Hunt's first marriage. But perhaps most likely, Alice was Daniel Hunt's daughter Alice, in which case she was presumably Anstice's step-niece. Anstice also leaves legacies to Sarah Hunt and her daughters Sarah and Anstice (the latter in a codicil dated 8 Feb 1719/20). Sarah was the widow of John Hunt. Just possibly, John Hunt was the same person as Anstice's son John Russell, but this makes him only 15 when he married. Most likely John is also a son of Anthony's first marriage, though it's also possible he was a son of Daniel. Finally a William Hunt is mentioned. Possibly he is John and Sarah's son William, in which case he was a child; but the context suggests he was an adult. More likely, he is Daniel's son William. Surprisingly, Anstice's will makes no mention of Anthony's daughter Mary Oake. It is therefore just possible that the Anstice who left the 1719 will is not Anthony's widow whom he names Anstice in his will. She is described as a widow in the will, but it does not say whose widow she was.	Collis, Anstice (I3310)
108	Anstice was a widow	Family F894
109	Apparently named "Lolita" on the 1891 census.	Laurens, Louisa Mary (I1082)
110	Arthur is the brother of Ruth Todd.	Todd, Arthur (I2228)
111	Arthur Thomas is not on the 1911 census with his wife and children, though was seemingly still alive as Elizabeth was described as married rather than widowed. We cannot be sure that Arthur was from the area, but Thomas is a local surname and there is an Arthur Thomas otherwise unaccounted for of the right age. There are only three births of an Arthur Thomas in the Lymington or New Forest registration districts between 1850 and 1890. The first was an Arthur born in 1863 in Buckler's Hard in Beaulieu parish, son of John and Mary; he can be found on the 1911 census in Exbury married to a Jane. The second was an Arthur born in 1876 in Buckler's Hard, son of William and Ellen; he can be found on the 1911 census lodging in Pennington, shown as married but without a wife present. The third was an Arthur John born in 1884 Wootton in Milton parish, and living in Brockenhurst in 1891; he can be found on the 1911 census in Crofton in Titchfield parish, unmarried, and living with his brother Christopher. It seems pretty clear the second Arthur is the missing husband of Elizabeth Collins.	Thomas, Arthur (I2874)
112	As 'Nicolas Pierre'.	Fallaize, Nicholas Peter (I4986)
113	As Betsey.	Fallaize, Elizabeth (I1010)
114	As Charles Croucher. This is definitely the right baptism, as in 1890 he applied for a pension from the Hospital of St Cross on account of "an affection of one leg … which prevents him from getting more than a few yards from his home." One of his referees included a copy of the baptism record of “Charles Croucher or Croutear as he now spells his name. I can vouch for this being his entry as I [personally] know that his parents names [were] John and Elizabeth.”	Croutear, Charles Samuel (I2161)
115	As Croucher.	Croutear, George (I2164)
116	As Elisha W Benham Fallaize on the 1851 census, and William Cronin on the 1861 census.	Fallaize, Elisha William Benham (I1061)
117	As Eliza Sarah.	Croutear, Sarah Eliza (I98)
118	As Elizabeth Carter.	Williams, Elizabeth (I3049)
119	As Ellen.	Banks, Eleanor (I335)
120	As George Goff.	Thomas, George (I3167)
121	As Henry John Croutear.	Croutear, Henry John (I2168)
122	As James Goff.	Thomas, James (I3168)
123	As James Thomas alias Goff.	Thomas, James (I3161)
124	As James Thomas alias Goffe	Thomas, James (I3052)
125	as Jane Thomas alias Goffe	Thomas, Jane (I3213)
126	as Joseph Thomas alias Goffe	Thomas, Joseph (I3053)
127	As Lydia Carter.	Williams, Lydia (I3048)
128	As Mary Carter.	Williams, Mary (I3047)
129	As no Bulls appear in the baptism registers of either Beaulieu or Boldre before 1690, the family presumably came from elsewhere. Bull v. Braxton mentions Bull family property across the New Forest in Ringwood, and a Charles Bull son of Francis was baptised there in 1667, the year before Charles's wife Mary was baptised in Beaulieu. The dates fit, but more conclusively, Charles and Mary had a son with the unusual name Lovell Bull. On 14 Dec 1656 Francis Bull married Jane Lovell in Ringwood, and Charles and Mary may have named one of their younger sons after his grandmother. However it should be noted that this was not the only Bull–Lovell marriage, as Jane's sister Hester Lovell married a John Bull and had a son named Lovell Bull too. It is just possible that Charles was an undocumented child of John and Hester, though this is difficult chronologically: Charles would have to have been born in c1674, making him just 18 when he married, and six years Mary's junior. Not impossible, but highly improbable when the alternative explanation is that Charles is the well-documented child of Francis.	Bull, Charles (I2728)
130	As William Carter.	Williams, William (I3045)
131	At the time of Jacques marriage to Jeanne Bliaut, his parents were described as of Yvetot, presumably meaning Yvetot-Bocage in La Manche. Probably that is where Jacques was from.	Gosselin, Jacques (I2124)
132	Banns read at Hinton Martel 3, 10 and 17 Jan 1796. Thomas was of Hinton Martel and Ann of Cranborne.	Family F1066
133	Banns read on 27 March, but "The parents refusing their consent banns not read a 2nd time." Banns then read 17, 24 & 31 July.	Family F1006
134	Baptised a second time on 11 Aug 1850 at East Boldre, aged 10. There seems little doubt it is the same person.	Willis, William Henry (I1882)
135	Baptised as a near-adult along with two siblings; date of birth given in the register	Moody, William (I5393)
136	Baptised as an adult along with two siblings; date of birth given in the register	Moody, Charlotte (I5391)
137	Baptised as an adult along with two siblings; date of birth given in the register	Moody, Anne (I5392)
138	Baptised at Exbury, daughter of William and Jane.	Banks, Betty (I988)
139	Baptised on the same day as her sister Alice and brother William.	Vane, Jane (I499)
140	Baptised on the same day as her sister Annie Rose.	Vane, Edith (I13)
141	Baptised on the same day as her sister Edith.	Vane, Ann (I504)
142	Baptism listed three times in the HGS transcript: on 27 May 1765 and again on 27 May 1766 and again on 27 May 1767. A similar thing happens with Mary's brother James. As there are no plausible burials and the dates are exactly separated by a year, I think it is most likely an artefact in the HGS transcription process.	Willis, Mary (I1954)
143	Baptism listed twice in the HGS transcript: on 25 Dec 1757 and again on 25 Dec 1758. A similar thing happens with James's sister Mary. As there are no plausible burials and the dates are exactly separated by a year, I think it is most likely an artefact in the HGS transcription process.	Willis, James (I1952)
144	Baptisms at St John's (then a chapel in St Mary's parish) were recorded twice, once in the St John's register and again in the St Mary's register. The former gives the date as 3 Jan, while the latter says 1 Jan.	Grossmith, Edward (I5505)
145	baseborn	Scorey, Jesse (I4897)
146	Bass on the 1881 census	Walker, George Henry (I4916)
147	Beheaded without trial after being captured by Queen Isabella's supporters. Subsequently attainted.	FitzAlan, Edmund Earl of Arundel (I4604)
148	Benjamin was left 1/– in his father's 1785 will. Probably this was a token bequest and he'd received his inheritance during his father's lifetime.	Banks, Benjamin (I982)
149	Bessie spent most of her adult life in Knowle Mental Hospital, near Fareham, Hampshire; she was able to work in the community as a grocer's assistant.	Banks, Bessie (I73)
150	Bill probably never divorced Ethel, even though he started living with Flo.	Family F431
