Does anyone have any history of the above farm? Pre 1900.
Thank you, fortuna

my 6 x great grandfather Stephen Osmond died in 1715. In his inventories he shows Popinjays Farm in Hungerford. He was farming 9 cows, 3 young beasts, 344 sheep, 6 hogs, 17 store pigs 30 poultry 22 rows of sown wheat & . I think the farm passed in tenure to his son Stephen but by 1775 it was no longer in the Osmond family
