Jood, Petersfield is a lovely place, I stayed outside there at a place called Langrish House and caught the bus into Petersfield. I found a great hair salon and a hair cut and a bit of pampering. I also found a excellent 2nd hand/antique book and print shop. I will look into my notes and see what else I have ... I seem to recall having some wonderful soup and a wicked desert for lunch ..
Peter's ancestors the Greentrees came from Harting, which is just across the border in Sussex.

So did the daughter in law of the aforesaid Mr Cook - the very same town.

She was Sally Phelps (spelt different ways) - born 1816 Harting, Sussex, died 21 Feb 21 1889

Jood, I bought a lovely scroll in the church - of the Parish of St. Mary and Gabriel, Harting. On the map it notes West, East and South Harting. South Harting is the village where the church is. I was fortunate that I was with my friends and F. is a keen historian and traditional furniture maker. As we walked around the village, he could tell me all about it. I will put some phots together and email them to you.
