Set As Default Person -
Name William COURT Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Abt 1758 Kirdford, Sussex, England

Gender Male Died 1831 The Workhouse, Witley, Surrey, England
- What is the evidence that it was this William whoh died in the Workhouse and Witley, and why would he have been there?
Possibly he worked there or served as an apprentice there and it became his place of settlement, or was Witley in fact working with Hambledon and other neighbouring parishes in a union? Witley is not listed with these other parishes on the Hambledon page on the Workhouse website - but could it have joined them later? Since William's father and grandfather were from Chiddingfold he could well have had that as his place of settlement.
