THE POST OFFICE
The shop now known as Stoborough Post Office or Gays Stores has a history going back at least to 1841, when Thomas Hatchard was the baker on the site.

Thomas Crumpler, great uncle of Ted Crumpler our present Parish Councillor, was the baker in the 1861 census. He was a young man of 29 years living on the premises with his parents (Daniel, a yeoman farmer and wife Sarah) and one of his brothers John, a carpenter. Thomas continued in the trade and appears in the 1891 census being helped by his sons, Thomas aged 24 years and George 22 years old.

In the Crumpler's day, the bakery was on the right of the present shop. The oven, fired by furze faggots, could bake 200 large loaves at a time. The faggots were lit in the oven and left to heat it while the dough was prepared. The hot ashes were then raked out and the oven wiped over; the loaves were placed inside and the door sealed on the outside with the hot ashes.

Baking continued for 6 days of the week and on the 7th the local people brought their dinners to be roasted for a penny. This kept the oven warm and saved time Monday morning in reheating, it also gave the cottagers a good Sunday roast as few had ovens of their own at home.

Collecting the furze from the surrounding heathland was a full time job for a man and his cart. The delivery round employed four carts, serving the Wareham area and all the villages around and out as far as Tyneham and Warbarrow.

Thomas Crumpler died in 1909. His daughter, Elizabeth, married to Sydney Gay, bought the goodwill of the shop from her late father's estate for £30. Elizabeth continued to run the shop until she was in her 80's when she sold to the present owner Mrs Jean Jones and her late sister Mrs May Bright.

The small shop and adjoining house was demolished at this stage and the present shop built. Mrs Jones remembers sweeping the earth floors in the cottage. The bake house (built by Sydney Gay) and much older stable block are still standing. Many older residents of the village will remember Mr William (Jim) Tubb (Mrs Jones' brother) and Mr Roy Bright (her brother in law) delivering groceries to customers in the village.

The post office was originally at 31 Corfe Road (4 doors north of the shop); it was also a shop and bakery. The baker and grocer in 1871 were Joseph Head and his wife Lavinia. It was still in the same family in 1964 when the then owner Ernest Head sold the business to William Jones (late husband of Mrs Jean Jones). Mr Jones operated the post office from 31 Corfe Road for a year and then closed the shop and transferred the post office to its present site.

All the staff in the present shop have had long serving records; Merle Henstridge stayed 31 years before retiring, Julie Warne 39 years with time out for 3 children, Pauline Marshallsay has spent 29 years in the post office and Jean Stockley has 18 years in post after working in Cullens in West Street.

The picture of the shop is difficult to date but was obviously taken before the installation of telegraph/electric cables in 1936.

We are most grateful for this interesting piece of history contributed by the late Percy Crumpler and the present proprietors, particularly Kathy Jones.

2303 Thomas Crumplet was one of the 60 men of Lytchett Matravers who signed the Protestation of 1641-42, Parliament's protest against the King's "arbitrary and tyrannical government", which every man over 18 had to sign. So he was born before about 1624. (Shirley Percival, A Dorset Village: Lytchett Matravers, 1982, page 21.) Not yet connected to the rest of this tree: he is probably a forebear or relative of the later Lytchett Matravers Crumplers. If you know where he fits, please tell us. Crumplet, Thomas (I602074737)
 
2304 Twelve children, five sons and seven daughters (Bob Vine). Marriage witnesses: Edith Ellen Crumpler and Samuel Vine. Family: Harry Vine / Annie Hannah Crumpler (F601969417)
 
2305 Twin brother of George Clement Parker. Both births are registered Jan-Mar 1875 in Pontypool district, vol 11a page 155, mother's maiden name MORGAN (GRO online birth index, searched 3 Nov 2026).

Death: GRO death index, WILLIAM CHARLES PARKER, age 1, Apr-Jun 1876, Pontypool 11a 92. This is the best fit but not certificate-proven; another William Charles Parker died in Pontypool in Jan-Mar 1883 aged 9, which does not fit a 1875 birth.

He is one of the "twin sons who died in infancy" in Aunt Min's letter (c1977). In fact only William Charles died as a baby; his twin George survived and died in India in 1906.

2310 Unclear from Parish Record how Thomas Glasby can be the son of Philip and Hanna Strickland and John and Elizabeth Crumpler. Crumpler, Thomas Glasby (I1541)
 
2311 UNPROVEN - two candidate marriages for Francis Todd, both in Co. Antrim a year before Sarah Jane's birth (c.1851); neither is confirmed.

(1) 22 May 1850, 1st Presbyterian meeting house, Ballyeaston, Co. Antrim (Antrim district, Group Reg. ID 3206631): Francis Todd, full age, bachelor, farm servant, of the Grange of Doagh; father William Todd. Mary O'Harra, full age, spinster, same place; father John O'Harra, soldier. Both signed by mark. Witnesses Thomas Beatty, John Todd.

(2) 5 March 1850, Registrar's Office, Lisburn (Group Reg. ID 3206926): Francis Todd, 30, bachelor, weaver, of Drumbeg parish; father Christopher Todd, farmer (deceased). Mary Ann Rickey, 20, spinster, same place; father Isaac Rickey, weaver. Both signed by mark. Witnesses Thomas Kelly, Sarah Hawthorne.

What would settle it: Sarah Jane's mother's name (e.g. from a sibling's birth after 1864, or Sarah Jane's death record). 
Todd, Francis (I114)
 
2312 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Added to Gloria's tree from Stewart Crumpler's Find a Grave memorial of her husband, Joseph Blackman Crumpler. Carter, Augusta Vermel (I602074811)
 
2313 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Added to Gloria's tree from the 1750-51 Southampton County, Virginia, deeds and will set out by Stewart Crumpler and Garth Matthews. Wife of John Crumpler Sr. and mother of John Crumpler Jr.; her maiden name is not known. She was alive and in Southampton County court, Virginia, on 14 Mar 1750 (Deed Book 1, pp 203-205). Grace (I602074810)
 
2314 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Added to Gloria's tree from the 1750-51 Southampton County, Virginia, deeds and will set out by Stewart Crumpler and Garth Matthews; the family record as it stood in 1999 did not include him, and showed his son John Jr. in his place as the son of William Crumpler and Elizabeth Raiford.

Son of Captain William Crumpler. On 14 Mar 1750 he conveyed 150 acres, including his father's home plantation, to his son John Crumpler Jr., and his wife Grace relinquished her dower in court the same day (Southampton County, VA, Deed Book 1, pp 203-205). Capt. William's will of 29 Oct 1750 left that plantation to his son John (Will Book 1, pp 36-37), and on 25 Nov 1751 John Jr. sold it to William Jones (Deed Book 1, pp 341-344). 
Crumpler, John Sr. (I602074809)
 
2315 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Garry died in 1888 (his grave in the Garry Crumpler family cemetery, Pine Level Township, and his Find a Grave memorial), not 1890 as in Gloria Vester's 1999 database. The death certificates of his sons Wiley (1922) and Ed name their parents as Garrie Crumpler and Alcie (Alsey) Watson. Crumpler, Garry (I602073758)
 
2316 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria Vester's 1999 database calls him William Washington; his gravestone, death certificate and many of his children's death certificates show he was Wiley (W. W.) Crumpler. His gravestone gives 16 March 1847, which cannot be right alongside his brother Robert's 9 February 1847; see the note on Robert. His own records give 1847, 1848 and 1849. Crumpler, Wiley Washington (I602074450)
 
2317 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which gave Garry's death as 1890. His grave in the Garry Crumpler family cemetery, Pine Level Township, Johnston County, gives 1888. His wife is 'Alcy Watson Crumpler, Wife of Garry Crumpler' on her gravestone there. Crumpler, Garry (I12515)
 
2318 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which gave her birth as July 1900, as her gravestone does. But the 1900 census, taken in June 1900, already lists her as born July 1899 and aged 1, so 1899 must be right. Debbie married Duard Albert Watson in 1918 and died on 19 February 1920; she is buried in the family graveyard beside her parents. Crumpler, Deborah (I12788)
 
2319 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which gave his birth as February 1882. The 1900 census gives February 1881, and he is not in the family's 1880 census household. (Find a Grave gives 4 February 1879, which would fall only four months after his sister Florence's birth.) He died on 16 September 1952 and is buried in the Oliver-Wiggs Cemetery, Pine Level. Crumpler, William Albert (I12782)
 
2320 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which gave Robert's birth as 1846. His gravestone in the R. W. Crumpler Cemetery, Selma Township, gives 9 February 1847, and his censuses agree. His full name was Robert William Crumpler; he married Tempie Eason in 1873 and died on 22 March 1920. Crumpler, Robert (I12516)
 
2321 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which gave this John's birth as 1712 and made him the son of William Crumpler and Elizabeth Raiford. Since then, the 1750-51 Southampton County, Virginia, deeds and will set out by Stewart Crumpler and Garth Matthews have shown that he was John Crumpler Jr., born about 1724, son of John Crumpler Sr. and Grace, and grandson of William. His father passed him Capt. William's plantation by indenture on 14 Mar 1750; he married Nancy Holmes in 1749, sold the land on 25 Nov 1751 and moved to Duplin County, North Carolina. Crumpler, John Jr. (I3169)
 
2322 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which listed a son Joseph, born 1841, as the eldest child. That 1841 Joseph goes back to an error first made in the 1970s and copied into many family trees since. Stewart Crumpler has shown that he was the same person as Josiah B. (Joseph Blackman Crumpler, born 1847), so he has been removed from this family. Family: John S. Crumpler / Alcey Stevens Bass (F1328)
 
2323 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which listed two brothers here: Joseph (born 1841, died at Cartersville, SC, married Maggie Lett) and Josiah B. (born about 1847). That 1841 Joseph goes back to an error first made in the 1970s and copied into many family trees since. Stewart Crumpler has shown that they are one man. No Joseph born 1841 is in John S. Crumpler's household in the 1850 census; the only Joe is Josiah B., born 1847, who appears under that name at Bonnetsville in 1850, 1860 and 1870 and afterwards as Joseph Blackman Crumpler. The separate 1841 Joseph has therefore been removed. The Cartersville death belongs to this man, but the marriage to Maggie Lett has not been confirmed; his Find a Grave memorial gives his wife as Augusta Vermel Carter.

He enlisted in the Confederate Army at Fayetteville, NC, on 10 Jun 1864, aged 17, and served to the end of the war. He married Augusta Vermel Carter, lived at Cartersville, SC, where he was appointed postmaster on 28 Oct 1872, and died at the Infirmary for Confederate Veterans in Columbia, SC, on 26 Jul 1914. 
Crumpler, Joseph Blackman (I3147)
 
2324 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which listed two daughters born in 1876, Mary and Estella. They were one girl, Bettie Ann Crumpler (22 November 1876 - 30 June 1945), who married Thomas Owens Barbee: the 1880 census lists her as Mary A. E., aged 3, and the 1900 census as Bettie, born November 1876, with her mother recorded as having 11 children, all living, which leaves room for only one. The two entries have been combined here. Crumpler, Bettie Ann (I12779)
 
2325 Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which named him William Washington. His gravestone, his death certificate and his children's death certificates show he was Wiley Washington (W. W.) Crumpler, 1847/48-1922, buried in the Barbee Cemetery near Selma. The 16 March 1847 birth date on his gravestone is doubtful: see his brother Robert's page in the family's current tree. Crumpler, Wiley Washington (I12777)
 
2326 Updated 31 Oct 2026: Albert Lee Crumpler was born 1 Nov 1875 according to his headstone in Roseboro, his 1958 death certificate (which names his parents as Wm. Everitte Crumpler and Elizabeth Underwood) and his 1917-18 draft card; the 1900 census, a 1920 passport application and his Social Security application give 1 Nov 1876. Gloria Crumpler Vester's database also listed an "Algernon L. Crumpler", born 1876, as his brother with no other details; no record of an Algernon has turned up, and every record of a son of these parents born in 1875-76 is Albert L., so the two entries are one man and have been merged. Charlene Ward's list of burials at Hollywood Cemetery, Roseboro names him "Algernon Lee", but the stone she photographed reads Albert Lee. Crumpler, Albert Lee (I4329)
 
2327 Updated 31 Oct 2026: birth 27 Nov 1855 and death 8 Dec 1901 from his headstone in Springvale Cemetery, Clinton ("NOV. 27, 1855 - DEC. 8, 1901"), photographed by Charlene Ward. This database previously gave the birth as 1855 and the death as 3 Dec 1901. Crumpler, Micajah Thomas "Doc" (I4072)
 
2328 Updated 31 Oct 2026: birth changed from 28 Jan 1887 to 28 Jan 1885, as on her headstone and her 1963 North Carolina death certificate. Other records give 1886, 1887 or 1888, always 28 January, so the year is not certain. Crumpler, Edith (I816)
 
2329 Updated 31 Oct 2026: birth corrected from 20 Aug 1888 to 19 Aug 1888, as on his headstone and his 1951 North Carolina death certificate. Crumpler, Alvin Ernest (I3553)
 
2330 Updated 31 Oct 2026: birth corrected from 6 May 1852 to 6 May 1851, as carved on his headstone in Hollywood Cemetery, Roseboro ("MAY 6, 1851 AMOS ROYAL JUNE 15, 1927"), photographed by Charlene Ward. Crumpler, Amos Royal (I198)
 
2331 Updated 31 Oct 2026: birth Feb 1887 added from her headstone ("GENARA CRUMPLER WILLIAMS / FEB. 1887 / DEC. 6, 1958"), photographed by Charlene Ward. Crumpler, Nora Genara (I3120)
 
2332 Updated 31 Oct 2026: Charles Festus Crumpler, son of Gaston Crumpler and Henrietta Williamson, was born 24 Dec 1883 according to his death certificate, Find a Grave and his marriage records (his draft card, Social Security application and the 1940 census give 1884; the 1900 census Dec 1885). He died at Clinton on 7 Sep 1960 and was buried on 9 Sep 1960 in Springvale Cemetery, Clinton. He married three times: Rhoda Kate Leslie at Goldsboro on 7 May 1905; Maggie Hudson at Rocky Mount, Nash County, on 26 Feb 1917; and Mary Lou Williamson at Goldsboro on 11 Jul 1922 (North Carolina county marriage registers, which name his parents). Maggie Hudson Crumpler is buried in Springvale Cemetery (Charlene Ward's list). Crumpler, Charles Festus (I268)
 
2333 Updated 31 Oct 2026: death 29 Dec 1995 added from the headstone at Piney Green Missionary Baptist Church ("ROLEN CROSBEN / SEPT. 2, 1911 / DEC. 29, 1995"), photographed by Charlene Ward. Crumpler, Roland Crosben (I8182)
 
2334 Updated 31 Oct 2026: death corrected from 14 Feb 1899 to 14 Feb 1898 and birth given as Jan 1820, as on his headstone and the 1930s WPA cemetery inscription survey. Crumpler, John S. (I3145)
 
2335 Updated 31 Oct 2026: death corrected from Oct 1891 to Oct 1897, as carved on his headstone ("STARLING AUTRY / DEC. 1811 / OCT. 1897"), photographed by Charlene Ward. Autry, Starling (I3386)
 
2336 Updated 31 Oct 2026: Elbert Erastus Crumpler, son of Gaston Crumpler and Henrietta (Etta) Williamson: born 16 May 1889, died 14 Jul 1914 at Goldsboro, Wayne County, buried 15 Jul 1914 in Springvale Cemetery, Clinton (North Carolina death certificate; headstone photographed by Charlene Ward). He married Maggie McMillan at Goldsboro on 2 May 1909 (Wayne County marriage register, which names his parents as Gaston and Etta Crumpler); their son Elbert Norwood Crumpler was born in 1913. The 1913 birth record of the son calls the father Erastus Cooper Crumpler, so his full name may have been Elbert Erastus Cooper or Erastus Cooper; the stone has Elbert Erastus. The two Erastus records in this database (I3599 and I16721) are the same man and have been merged. Crumpler, Elbert Erastus (I3599)
 
2337 Updated 31 Oct 2026: Gaston Henry Crumpler, son of John S. Crumpler and Alcey Eliza Bass, died at South Clinton on 23 Apr 1918 and was buried on 24 Apr 1918 in Springvale Cemetery, Clinton (North Carolina death certificate; Find a Grave). He married Etta (Henrietta) Williamson on 2 Dec 1875 in Duplin County (county marriage register). His birth year is uncertain: his death certificate gives 1852, the 1860 census implies about 1854, the 1870 census and his marriage record about 1853, and the 1900 census Oct 1855 (1910: about 1855). We give about 1853. The exact dates previously in these trees (31 Aug 1851 here; Feb 1854 in Gloria Crumpler Vester's database) are not supported by any record we have found. Crumpler, Gaston Henry (I3597)
 
2338 Updated 31 Oct 2026: George Henry Crumpler, son of Gaston H. Crumpler, died at Wilmington on 21 Dec 1955 and was buried on 24 Dec 1955 in Springvale Cemetery, Clinton (North Carolina death record; Find a Grave). His birth is recorded as 3 Jun 1875 in a North Carolina birth record naming his father Gaston H. Crumpler and in his Social Security application; his death record and headstone give 3 Jun 1877, and the 1880 census about 1878. We keep 3 Jun 1875. If that is right he was born six months before his parents' marriage on 2 Dec 1875. Census and death records of his daughter Henrietta Crumpler Hurlburt name his wife as Julia Renue (Renew), with whom he lived in Wilmington in 1940 and 1950; the Martha Willis shown here as his wife comes from Gloria Crumpler Vester's database and may have been an earlier marriage. Crumpler, George Henry (I3602)
 
2339 Updated 31 Oct 2026: Surname Williamson, not Williams: their 1922 marriage record and his 1960 death certificate call her Mary Lou (Mary Love) Williamson. Williamson, Mary Lou (I271)

2346 WHAT BECAME OF RUTH (researched 2 Nov 2026). Born 21 Feb 1912 at Caterham and baptised at St Mary's, Caterham, on 5 May 1912, daughter of Clement Parker, gardener, then 65, and his second wife Harriet Sarah. Her father died on Christmas Day 1922, when she was ten. On 3 Aug 1935, aged 23, she married Harry Cole, about fourteen years older, at St Leonard's Church, Surrey (the register names her father as Clement Parker). In 1939 the couple were in domestic service together at Ealing, Ruth as house parlourmaid. She died at Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, on 30 Jan 1972, aged 59, leaving a will (probate Oxford, 3 Mar 1972). CHILDREN: none found yet. A search of the birth index for Cole children with mother's maiden name Parker (1936 onwards, Middlesex and Buckinghamshire) is the next step; any children would be half-first-cousins of Frank Todd Wilson. Parker, Ruth (I602074848)
 
2347 WHEN BRUNO AND ELISE MARRIED (resolved 2 Nov 2026). The Montevideo church registers (media 1509, 520, 521) are the definitive record: Bruno Wyser and Elise Schoenhals married at the German Evangelical Church, Montevideo, on 3 Feb 1869. Their daughter Ida Alice had been born there on 30 Oct 1867, "unehelich" (out of wedlock), and was baptised on the same day as the wedding, which made her legitimate. Bruno's brother Otto Wyser was one of her godparents, and she shares her name with Bruno's sister Ida Rosalia (INFERENCE that she was named for her).

Fifteen years later, in Sydney, Bruno declared on Fanny's birth certificate of 29 Sep 1884 (media 78) that they had married on 16 October 1866 in South America. INFERENCE: a respectable earlier date, which put the wedding before Ida's birth. The same certificate claims 11 earlier children (2 boys and 3 girls living, 3 boys and 3 girls dead). TNG has 9 children before Fanny, 3 of them dead by 1884. The two missing children, if they existed, may have been born and died between Ida (1867) and Maria (Dec 1871) in Uruguay, but nothing has been found. Not changed.

Ages: the marriage register gives Bruno as 27 (TNG born 6 Nov 1841, which fits) and Elise as 25 (TNG born 20 Mar 1841, which would make her 27). Not changed.

Ida went on to repeat the pattern: her own daughter Amy Winifred "Lena" (born 1887) was illegitimate and was raised as Bruno and Elise's child. 
Family: Bruno Albert Wiser / Elisa Schoenhals (F11)

2350 Wife of John Crumpler Sr. and mother of John Crumpler Jr.; her maiden name is not known. On 14 Mar 1750 she appeared in Southampton County court, Virginia, and voluntarily relinquished her right of dower in the land her husband conveyed to their son (Deed Book 1, pp 203-205). Some trees say she died in Nash County, North Carolina, but she was alive and in court in Virginia in 1750 (Stewart Crumpler). Grace (I602074807)
