Kelly’s Directories 1877/1890
Hugh
Just a couple of entries that I can find :
1890 [only]
Potton…there is a George WINTERS, beer retailer, Bull Street,
1877 / 1890
Biggleswade…David Paine WINTERS, farmer, Stratton Park farm
Kelly’s appears to list gentry, farmers/tradesmen and public officials but other people [who work for others] arent listed as a rule
I looked in the Muster Lists [Bedfordshire Muster Rolls, 1539-1831edited by Nigel Lutt, vol 71 (1992) £15] and found just one entry in there:
In Dunton cum Millo [in the Biggleswade Hundred]: William WINTERS was enrolled in the County Militia, he was chosen by lot in Feb 1763
