My great, great grandfather was Thomas Hovell Colman who farmed in Rockland St Peter, as did his son, my great grandfather. However, my grandfather, who was born in the village, became an engineer and the farm went out of the family.
My cousin and I are researching our family history and wonder if there are any historical documents in the village that could add depth to our understanding. We are also curious to find out more about Robert Colman who farmed at Pound Farm in Rockland St Andrew, to see if we can connect the two families.
