Thanks your a star!

I certainly think you could be right - Wallbrook House does sound more likely.

I'm not sure where Annie Henderson fits in here though,however interestingly enough I did find a Annie Bevan born Dec 1891 in the BMD. Food for thought perhaps and maybe worth having a look at.

Vailbrook House, Longhope ? (reply)

tentoes — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 12:58:33 +0000

Thanks for your help - the reason I am asking is because it is mentioned in the baptism record for my grandmother Annie Henderson. She is a bit of a mystery to me as I have always been told she was an orphan from Bristol but have hit many brickwalls with this one. I know she married Frederick Lewis Marshall.

I was wondering if Vailbrook house could have been an institution ???

Any ideas ?

Velthouse Longhope ? (reply)

slowhands — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 10:33:21 +0000

I'm aware of the Velthouse near Longhope Brook, heading south from Longhope towards Blaisdon :-

The Velthouse, an outlying farmstead to the north, was recorded from 1591; (fn. 27) it was rebuilt in brick in the 19th century.

From: 'Blaisdon: Introduction', A History of the County of Gloucester: Volume 10: Westbury and Whitstone Hundreds (1972), pp. 6-7. URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=15734 Date accessed: 02 August 2009.

What context does Vailbrook appear ?

Vailbrook House Longhope

Can anyone shed any light as to where/what Vailbrook House, Longhope might have been?
