Arthur-Robin

Wow 2 and a half pages of new posts since i last visited, which i will have to read. Thanks everyone. The update that i came to post is this: Our new ebook on Robin Hood and Roger Godberd (of Sherwood & Notts) is here http://www.allempires.com/forum/ebook_view.asp?BookID=108 . So far we have only done 11 chapters and there are still half a dozen or so more yet to do including ones on the Bishop of Hereford, Alan a Dale, etc. The small ebook is maybe written abit too technically and/or not written very well for general public though, so we might later find someone to rewrite a better v

I'm going to put a new tentative theory that Robin Hood's grave is really under or near/by Major Oak in Edwinstowe in "the heart of Sherwood". Robin Hoods grave is in some sources connected with a tree? Major Oak is ca 800 yrs old and "would have been a sapling at the time of Robin Hood" or is supposed to have been "a full grown tree" then, and it might have been planted then or RH buried near/by/under it? A photograph of the "most famously of all" tree gives the impression to my imagination that the tree and site/place may well be RH's burial site. (Sherwood trees inscriptions m

Maybe something biblical since i feel a bit worried about not seeking that as much as other things. I have already researched so many things ("(King) Arthur's" 12 battles battle-sites, Robin Hood, Joseph in Egypt, Moses in Egypt, Judge Crater, Jack the Ripper, Atlantis, water fluoridation, Nazareth, Popes & Emperors lists matches, 7 church ages and martyr Antipas of Revelation, etc). Have seeked and (seemingly) discovered so many things but one thing i didn't discover was life most abundant. (I also haven't yet found out about my real grandfather the ww2 Italian pow in Notts in 1946.) I al

Thanks heaps folks. There is no doubt now that it is right, it is just the difficulty of having to explain it all in detail in way everyone else can easily see since we all have different ways of seeing things. We have found so quality and quantity matches now between heaps of Robin Hood names/persons (and natures) and Roger Godberd names/persons (and natures) that it is certain. Just to try break a few explanations down: name Robyn Hood / Robard Hude = Roger Godberd. The 'Gest' says "Gode Robyn" = Roger Godberd. (Robin Goodfellow confi

As usual the problem is i have difficulty writing my discoveries in a form that anyone else (academia, public, etc) can read/understand and see the matches. So we have put the matches between Robin Hood and Roger Godberd (& John Deyville) in table form here: http://www.allempires.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20717&PID=717999#717999 Anything i need to explain please post questions and i will hope to try answer if i am able re time, etc.

Thanks for the helpful local info & ideas. Just a couple of last extra candidates for matches between Robin Hood characters and Roger Godberd characters: David of Doncaster ~ Walter Devyas/Deuyas/Deyvas/de Ewyas/de Euyas? or J/R/N/J Deyville? or Diva? (Robin Hood) earl of huntingdon ~ Roger God-berd of Swaneton/Swaninton/Swanington? Anketil of Swanington? or Gerewedon/Garendon? George a Green the Pinder of Wakefield ~ Geoffrey Godberd? or Roger de Remes? So the ballads and the writers were right not wrong!

One final extra possible match: Curtal Friar/F(f)rere Tuck(e)/Tuk(e) "of Fountains Dale/Abbey" ("chaplain", "lusty/bawdy", "wore an artificial phallus", "RH offers him a lady free", "Abbot of Misrule", fool) ~ Dick Partington/Patrington ~ Richard de Gaham, parson of Schirlond (of Roger Godberd's band)? [~ Parson of Chaucer's CTs?] Also another possible link between RH and St Peter: does Godberd mean good beard, like the popish "St Peter" [and like Nero, and Papa Smurf] had a bushy white beard? I hope that this is not another case of "Babylon moher of all harlots"?

Major correction update. We were wrong about Robin Hood being Robert Deyville, and wrong about Will Scarlet and Much. It turns out that Robin Hood is actually Roger Godberd after all; and Will Scarlet and Much are in list of Godberds associates. (Though we are not sure which of the few candidates Will Scarlet is, and we aren't sure of about anyone who Much might match.) Little John still may only best match John Deyville though, though there are 2 other leeser possible candidates in list of Godberds associates. Candidate matches between Robin Hood characters etc & Roger Godbe

We have made some more discoveries for Deyvilles scenario from this page on Godberd http://www.robinhoodlegend.com/records-of-godberd/ . See updated "table"/lists at theblueboarinnrobinhooddiscussions.yuku.com/topic/1114/interesting-questions-andor-tidbits?page=2 . (I have since been able to post there again there since that day i wasblocked from posting.) I think we have found Sir Guy of Gisbourne. It looks like sir Guy of (Good) Gisburn is more likely to be Warin de Bassingburne "who had died", rather than Walter (de_)Ewyas/Devyas/Deuyas/Deyvas/Euyas (who William of

Wow thanks for that David. I was finding it difficult to find anymuch good web/net info because of the problem of spellings of the surname. Its always more difficult searching when variations of spellings of (combinations of) names (eg Gisbourne, Gisburne, Guy, Guye). Variations of spellings i have collected so far: Deyville, D'eyvill, De_Eyvill(e), D'Eyvile, d'Ayvil(l), de_Daiville, Davill, Deiville, Dayville, Deyville, Daiville, De_Ville. Yes that John D'eyvill of Hood & "Robin of Chesterfield" are the same persons as our John Deyville & Robert Deyville.

Re Mr Hardcastle there is a Miss Hardcastle in CS Lewis' 'That Hideous Strength'. http://www.gutenberg.ca/ebooks/lewiscs-thathideousstrength/lewiscs-thathideousstrength-00-t.txt ----- Little John [John Deyville] was Robin Hood's [Robert Deyville's] Big Brother.

p.s. It seems that 3 or 4 of {Robin Hood, Little John, Will Scarlet &/or Much Millersson} match with 3 or 4 of {Robert Deyville, John Deyville, Nichole/Nicholas Deyville &/or Jocelin/Goscelin Deyville}, but we are not certain which way around {Will & Much} and {Nichole ("victory people") & Jocelin ("just one")} match. Nichole/Nicholas Deyville (cousin, at Caunton, deputy Sherifff of Notts, a custos pacis, a leader of rebels). (Sir) Jocelin Davil/Dainell (cousin, valletus/yeoman, notorious, at Deighton north of Pontefract, aid of Thomas Earl Lancaster, at

I think i may possibly have just solved it. Robin Hood, Little John and Will Scarlet maybe match Robert Deyville, John Deyville (strong man) and Nichole Deyville. Thanks to John M who directed me to this page which gives alot of info about them http://www.robinhoodlegend.com/robert-hod-cambridge/ . If this is right then of course it means that EF Jacob more or less already discovered Robin Hood in/by/before 1925. John M was right about Bower & . "Merry Christ-mas" "Merry Men". Here is a first table for the possible Deyvilles scenario (all possible candidates, but gen in order of fi

Thankyou Benjamin, thats an interesting idea to checkout that i didn't think of. (I have wondered if Hereward the Wake might link with Herewig ancestor of Robert Butler of Skelbrooke http://midgleywebpages.com/skelbrooke.html , and/or with Wakefield.)

Someone has blocked or is blocking me from being able to post on the blue boar Robin Hood forum anymore. So i have to post this that i worked on on last 1-2 wholedays here instead. (Keep getting forbidden, no permission to post reply there today. More persecution from Rome. Or have i been banned there because i said a few negative bits? Always the way, dirty rotten secret blockings etc against me that no one else knows about. (Sorry if it possibly wrong paranoia, but is strange thing & timing that never happened before.) I tried to use my years old other yuku account (i hope i

Sorry again, i just have an email reply from step-aunt that "part of it - the part [they] sent me" was written by grandmother. This is darn impossible. There is no way to tell who/which wrote &/or typed some parts of the life story / memoirs. I assume that "granddad" Edwards typed it though, and so the morse code looks very unlikely. I have already wrecked my friendship with uncle Eric either/both because of this and/or because i am so difficult to help because of my difficult situation/conditon &/or because i am so negative because of hell i am suffering. As always it is always me th

Sorry i just checked and surely my step-aunt is wrong because the 2 pages text is clearly by my grandmother Rosalba not by "granddad" Edwards, since it says things like "Lisle", "he", etc. (I had emailed my uncle to ask if the life story / memoirs gives any date for when written (or the latest/last date in it). But turned out my uncle is away on a mission at present and step-aunt replied.)

Thats not true/fair. What is there to work with that i don't want to? I have already said that i will try to get my mother's and my aunty/unlce birthcert when i am able to, to check if it gives a parents living address. There is nothing else. (The few other suggestions people have made like the university book writer, italian clubs etc i also have to chase up if & when i am able to.) I just said i didn't have much good opinion of it, and that my situation & condition/sickness makes it extremly difficult. Its not the same for all. Most people aren't 42 and always been single like i am

Thank-you Bubblewrap, the site was of good/great use in collating list of Notts pow camps, though two previous people had also given me it too. Ok thanks Annswabey. This is not meant as antagonistic to you, this is just my frank opinion of stupid western system ways and rules. I would have thought that the (Red Cross) Geneva War Archive would have had (or should have) lists of repatriated pows not just individual person files. And even if it is arranged that way *and computer/online* then one should be able to "search" for words like Italian and Nottingham and camp name and date etc. Any pro

Thank-you everyone. Sorry for missing the recent replies - sometimes i dont visit the forum much like when i'm busy, or if this and other forum threads seem slow/disinterested, or if i forget, or net connection troubles (i only have dialup and xp). Thankyou Nonna, yes I had wondered about if there were any Brethren organisations (and/or Italian organisations) or people in Trowell or Underwood that might be able to help or know something, but i wasn't really sure how to find out. (My grandmother and commonly assumed grandfather were Brethren, the p.o.w. was Italian. I don't know whether the It

Some advice i'd give someone from lessons i have learnt in my life. (Sorry some are mundane and show how dumb i have been in my life.) ingredients lists are in order of amounts rinse everything (food, clothes) (not easy with fluoridated water & water sitting in tanks though). always run the water before using (re soft water sitting in metal fittings/pipes/tanks) (and don't leave food in metal pots overnight). be aware/wary of fluoridated (and alluminium-laced) public tap water. don't buy into "corporate body"/"company share" flat buyer beware (look over everything if able esp/incl ac

Thankyou DJ360 for that new one. Thanks for the awesome picture Cliff Ton. Only the red dots in the map are camps. The 3 blue dots on my map are not camps but the 3 places where my grandmother lived from 1942 to 1947. I may have got one or more dots wrong. Wikipedia says Bestwood is east of Hucknall and north of Bulwell, but when i plot the dot on the map it is southeast of Hucknall and ENE of Bulwell ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bestwood_Village, Bestwood seems to be right in middle of my Bulwell tag string-line). (So let me know if any dots are wrong, as it may change what camp is or is

I found a map of some of the pow camps in Notts. Sorry i couldn't get a very clear webcam picture (i wasn't able to do a screen shot as the printscreen doesn't seem to work), so the names are written out below. I could not find any way to attach file/photo so i had to upload it to a site and put link here ( www.freewebs.com/lifetradition/032839.jpg ). I have added a few other camps that people here mentioned, and a few from other sources. pow camps Notts: carlton Hall carburton norton nether Headon boughton rufford Abbey wollaton Park nottingham raf Langer tollerton Hall bunny Park source: t

Just an update: i haven't yet ordered the 2 certificates, or sent the advertisment to local Underwood/Nottingham papers over there yet, and i haven't heard back from the Red Cross yet, or done the genetic paternity test on the hair root yet, but I just had an idea before/when/after i woke up from sleeping/dozing the other day that my grandmother might have left a code of the Italian's name somewhere. If there is a code anywhere it would possibly be with something she gave my mother. My mother said she had some letters, but since my mother's bad news about the lung cancer about a month or so ag

I found a few more https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dates_predicted_for_apocalyptic_events sorry if this is a wee bit off topic but Some of us have been suffering hell enough just with things like fluoridated (& alluminium-laced) water. I don't have any clean running "home" tap water here. (The thugs evade by trying to claim that getting a water filter is easy solution but it is not.) Some people are being cut off from electricity for refusing smart meters (does any one hear about them?), some of us are being forced to choose between changing to broadband or going without if we
