Text from the free encyclopedia WIKIPEDIA may appear below to give a little background information (internal links may not work) :
*************
Fordington is a part of the town of Dorchester, Dorset; originally a separate village, it has now become a suburb. Taking its name from a ford across the River Frome, it grew up around the church of St. George (where Henry Moule was once Vicar), though the parish was much larger and surrounded Dorchester on three sides. It was part of the liberty of Fordington
The will of Alfred the Great is said to make an early reference to Saint George of England, in the context of the church of Fordington, Dorset.[1] Certainly at Fordington a stone over the south door records the miraculous appearance of St George to lead crusaders into battle.[2]
Thomas Salisbury (a solicitor) lived at Fordington with his wife Frances (née Webb). Their daughter, Anne Caroline Salisbury (1805 – 3 May 1881), was the maternal great-grandmother of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother and great-great-grandmother of Queen Elizabeth II.[3]Please ask if you need any other information and I will do the best I can to answer.
