Notes for MARTHA DAVIES:

 

Martha was a keen sportswoman in her youth and enjoyed fox hunting,  she rode side saddle.

 

It is believed that the Davies family were responsible for the Anchor which is at Great Hoaten Farm.  Great Hoaten Farm later became known as Anchor Hoaten.

 

According to Capt. John Boston Childs (husband of Elizabeth Child Feild, who was 1st cousin to William Henry Feild, husband of Martha)  near his home was a huge ancient anchor which had probably belonged to a Viking ship.  It was brought from under the sea by the captain's relatives and was laid in the lawn of their home.  The wood of the anchor is petrified.

 

 

From the book "Historic Houses of Pembrokeshire and their Families" by Major Francis Jones, 1999.

 

"In the westerly sector of the parish, near the boundary with St. Brides, were the four messuages of Great-, Little-, Middle-Hoaten and Hoaten Hill, all marked on Colby's map of 1831.  The most important of these was Great Hoaten, home of the Morgan family in the 16th and 17th centuries".

 

"By now all the Hoatens were farmed by tenants.  In 1786 Great-, Middle- and Little Hoaten were owned by Thomas Skyrme of Vaynor and let to farmers.  On the lawn of Great Hoaten rests a huge iron achor, said to be a relic of the Spanish Armada".  (Source:  'Historic Houses of Pembrokeshire and their Families')

 

"On the lawn at Great Hoaten Farm is an enormous anchor, over seventeen feet in length and with flukes measuring fourteen feet across, which is locally held to be a relic of the Spanish Armada but is eighteenth century.  It was found on the beach at St. Bride's Haven, though no one can say how it got there, and was dragged by teams of horses to its presnt site."  (Source:  'Potrait of Pembrokeshire' by Dillwyn Miles, 1984). 

 

Martha is shown on the 1851 Census as living at Little Hall, Talbenny with her mother Margaret as head of the household, married, aged 40, a Cottager born Penally, Pembs.  Also living at Little Hall was her brothers Robert and Thomas Henry Davies and her sisters Elizabeth & Frances.  Their father is not shown on the census at Little Hall.

A substantial 6 bedroom, 2 reception room house, retaining many original features, with adjoining 3 bed house, outbuildings, including coach house, workshop, stables, paddock, ponds and woodland in approx 3 acres.1¾ miles from the coast.  (2001)

Notes for WILLIAM HENRY FEILD:

William Henry Feild - farmer of Fold Farm, Herbrandston, Pembs.

 

 

 

Wrote this poem about his father's rescue of 14 sailors from the brig "Felicita" in 1833.

======================================================================

 

TO CAPTAIN FEILD

ON HIS BED OF SICKNESS

 

 

 

A shivering "Brig," tossed by the breakers,

'Midst the tempest's deafening roar,

Was driven in to Sandyhaven,

And was wreck'd not far from shore.

 

Six brave Tars lay safely anchor'd

Underneath the galloping wave,

And fourteen left for thee to rescue,

From a yawning watery grave.

 

Stupendous was the arm that bore thee,

Through the surf to save the crew,

And Fame stood on the beach to greet thee,

Victory's laurels o'er thee flew.

 

That "Cup," tho' silent on yon table,

Well deserves a golden frame,

And children's children will for ages,

Lisp the praises of thy name.

 

Thou hast sail'd the briny ocean,

And oft climbed the giddy mast,

But hast cast they rusty anchor

In this bed to moor at last.

 

Oft thy face has smiled upon me,

As we jogged the world along;

But they vacant gaze now tells me,

That they recollection's gone.

 

Kindred ties that bind me to thee,

Make this heart with anguish flow,

Any my sorrow for they sadness,

Is too much for thee to know.

 

Why does frenzy hold dominion,

O'er thy wide capacious brain?

Why has reason flown and left thee,

Never to return again?

 

Can fond memory ever slight thee,

Can this bosom e'er forget,

Can these eyes that languish on thee,

Turn away without regret.

 

What's they sickness or thy sorrow,

What's they anguish or thy pain,

If the senses taken from thee

Join they soul in heaven again.

 

Never will thy mother's blessing

Mould in oblivion's bed,

Angels o'er they form are hovering,

For the prayers that she said.

 

Beauteous spirits soon will bear thee,

Where the loveliest landscapes glow,

And mortality shall leave thee,

Mouldering in its tomb below.

Notes for THOMAS HENRY DAVIES:

 

Thomas Henry Davies took possession of Great Hoaten Farm (Anchor Hoaten) and was living there in 1881 and was still shown as living there in the 1891 census.  Between 1877 - 1878 (and probably before and after these dates) Thomas and his family were living at Orlandon, St. Brides.  It appears that Thomas took over at Gt. Hoaten Farm sometime after 1878.

 

 It was also probably Thomas who was responsible for bringing the Anchor to Gt. Hoaten and putting it on the front lawn where it has been ever since.  It was reputed to have been put there during the 1880's or 90's.
