I was born in Sherborne Yeatman Hospital in 1943. I spent my next 18 years on Clinger Farm, Buckland Newton. My father William Albert Jesty owned the farm. It was a 430 acre mixed farm in a ring fence. My brother David has a farm Claveralls Farm at Marnhull.We used to belong to the Young Farmer's Club along with our cousins Clive and Helen ( they both have farms still in the area), whose Dads were my fathers' brothers--Fred and Bob. It was an idyllic childhood, I could write much about the English country life in the Blackmore Vale at that time.
My father(the eldest of five) was born in 1906 and died in 1989.We seem to originate from the Bere Regis strand.
