Feniton History Group Meeting Sept 12th 2023

Hi All

Just an early reminder of the next meeting which will be at 8pm in the Nog Inn.

The meeting will be different from normal as it will be entirely devoted to the organisation of events to celebrate the 475th Anniversary of the Battle of Fenny Bridges.

The provisional committee for the event will be running the meeting but everyone is welcome to attend as the more input and ideas we can get at this early stage the better.


Geoff





The next meeting. 8th Feb. 2022

 Sadly it was decided to cancel January's meeting due to Covid.


The next one is scheduled for Tuesday 8th February in the Nog Inn.

The 105th Meeting

Five of us attended last night’s meeting where we enjoyed mince pies and macaroons brought along by Lionel [many thanks to his wife for making them for us] and had nearly two hours chat about numerous things historical [I was too busy eating the macaroons to make a note of the subjects, but they were very diverse]. See below:


We discussed marriage laws and bigamy, the industrial revolution, Toll roads and acts of parliament relating to them.  Alan had a passage about Bishop Grandisson of Exeter and his origins.  The 1939 Register and the 1921 census being released next year.

The next meeting [subject to there being no changes in being able to have meetings] will be on 

TUESDAY January 11th 8pm at the Nog Inn.

Wishing all a Happy Christmas
Geoff
