Issue 19 - Forest Lodges Part 2
< can not find the index for Issue 18 - but I suspect Part 1 is there ! >
Following Geoff Waygood's excellent articles in the New Regard about the Forest Lodges, he tells me that, courtesy of Mr Melville Watts, a photograph of the now demolished Russell's Lodge, near Parkend, has come to light. He is wondering if there are any other old photos around of other lodges that have since been demolished which are as follows:-
Astonbridge Lodge, The Pludds.
Chestnuts Lodge, Littledean / Greenbottom area, within the inclosure.
Haywood Lodge, Edgehills.
Lincoln Hill Lodge, off the Spruce Drive, Speech House.
Lea Bailey Lodge, near Bailey Lane End
Shutcastle Lodge, Bream.
Staple End Lodge, within the enclosure above Soudley.
Barnhill Lodge, near Broadwell.
Kensley Lodge, near Speech House. (NB The original lodge which was burnt down)

I don´t have any photographs to share but I think my dad, Douglas, and his family (Raymond and Ruth Bosley lived there in 1930s with Cecil, my dad´s older brother....and maybe Mary and Colin)
My grandmother nee Adams was a forester´s daughter....several of her brothers went to Africa and Canada
Quite a few of the Bosley/Yemm side went to America...I assume Pennsylvania to work in the coal industry
I would love to have more information about the families on both sides

Hi Blackwoodgirl,
as you can see you've replied to posts from quite a few years ago. Altho' it's not impossible, it seems unlikely their authors will see your replies. I say this as their usernames are displayed in black, rather than blue like ours are - this indicates they've not visited the forum for over a year or so (excepting Slowhands, who sadly doesn't post these days). I do hope I'm wrong and they do see and reply, but... ?
Regarding your ancestors who went to the USA, it's hard to say for sure without knowing their names or dates, but you may be able to trace them via the passenger shipping lists and the USA Censuses. These can be accessed free-of-charge on the FamilySearch website.
My quick internet search found this page which may be of interest to you if you've not already seen it. Like all links it's best to open it into a new tab or window.

Hoping this is of interest. If you have any specific questions regarding your family history researches please post them and we'll do our best to help you.

My ancestor John White and his wife Elizabeth (Betty) lived in Latimer Lodge (Littledean Lodge) in the early 1800s. He was Keeper of Littledean Walk for 43 years. I would be grateful for any information you have on The Lodge, the people who lived there and the Keepers of the Forest. Thank you.

Latimer Lodge still exists adjacent to Littledean Hill Rd and Causeway Rd overlooking the horseshoe bend of the River Severn.They were the posseors of a couple of the few tennis courts in Cinderford and also a very early TV setie pre 1939-45 war.During the said war a Jewish German refugee stayed there,he came past my home daily on his way to Cinderford Police Station to register his whereabouts.The last owners I know of was 20 years ago named Trump who had a butchers shop in the High St [now demolished] before that I believe the name of Evans comes to mind.Mr Trump had the largest German Shepherd dog I have ever seen,no doubt extremely well fed from his shop.
I hope this information is helpful.
