I have been looking into my Amphlett forebears recently and was delighted to come across you fascinating information, which I see you have only just posted. Regarding Hadzor House / Hall, I suspect it was all brand new in 1779; about half-a-mile to the south, just off you map, is Hadzor Manor (http://www.homeaway.co.uk/p828367). I assume that this was where William Amphlett lived when he bought the Manor of Hadzor from the Copley family in 1633. It then passed down the generations until Richard inherited it. I note that in 1779, the year the new house was built, he was High Sheriff of Worcestershire, and perhaps he wanted a grander house to match his status. The Amphletts in your blog have, I believe, completely died out now, as far as the male line / surname is concerned. I have various documents and records kept by Edward Greenhill Amphlett ('Ned' as he was known); he was interested in his family history and kept in touch with the various other branches of his family. Thank you for such an interesting piece of work.Nick Kingsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03588322361791532910noreply@blogger.com
