I suspect the "0" is a quirk of computers, probably a non-blank entry, such as "-", being displayed as "0"

Grooms age at marriage now reads correctly as "Of full age".

Newherne, Lydney (reply)

Spot on Newherne is today part of Lydney.

Roughly to the north, on the Whitecroft /Parkend road out of Lydney.On the west side of the Lyd.

I suspect the "0" is a quirk of computers, probably a non-blank entry, such as "-", being displayed as "0"

Where is Newherne?

Karaka — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 17:01:22 +0000

On record ID 20348 there is mention of a residence given as "Newherne".
Is that in the FOD?
Is it near Lydney?
On the same 1860 marriage record the Groom's (Charles Thorn) age is given as "0"
Is there a way to check this entry from the Lydney Register P209 IN 1/15 Page 170.
