Anyone researching the SHERRED/SHERRODS who were Travellers, mostly around East Dorset and West Hampshire.
Re: SHERRED/SHERROD
Would this include Priscilla Sherrod (born c1825 in Hampshire)? She's mentioned in this book: “GIPSIES OF THE NEW FOREST & OTHER TALES" - first published In 1909 by HENRY GIBBINS. Apparently Priscilla was afflicted with St Vitus' Dance which led to her going by the name "Trembling Polly".
According to this 1909 book, Priscilla "was spending her final days in the workhouse".
