to locate: The Manor of Catisfield, sold at auction June 1812, said to include "a genteel residence in the village of Catisfield, comprising a respectable family House, lawn, garden, coach-house, stable, and one acre of meadow land, now in the possession of William Thresher, Esq. the proprietor of the Manor and Estate, 
to locate  Glorise Cottage,
Early names:   Towards the end of the 18th century, the picture began to change because the wealthy began to buy the copyholds. Admiiral John Faulkner, an Admiral of the Blue, held 14 copyholds; Captain Pakenham is 'presented' because he dug across the road from the corner of the barn in the possession of John Stares, to the house in the possession of Mr B.Biddle; in1798 Edward Fry, a cabinet maker of Fareham, sells land to George Purvis, Secretary to the Earl of St Vincents, Commander-in-Chief of His Majesty's Britannic Navy in the Mediterranean. George Purvis is shortly after presented' for carting gravel and carting turf In 1803 there is mention of Robert Briggs, a Vice Admiral,
The Stares family appear to have been in the Manor for a long time:- a Charles Stares is mentioneed in 1713 and a William Stares held land in the manor in 1879. Other names mentioned between 1713 and 1730 are Paffard, Bodbrook, Russell, Bissell, Lee, Holt, Sabin, Churcher, Glyde and Cawte
