BAVERSTOCK FAMILY HISTORY

'Baverstocks', 106-112 High Street, Alton Hampshire, was a single property in Jane Austen's time.

It was owned by the Baverstock family and let by her Royal Navy brother Frank Austen for two years.

Its as a  modern shop front, but mid-18th century doorcase.


'Swathmore', 59 High Street, Alton, Hampshire, owned by the Baverstock family and probably built for them around 1769.

They brought a law suit together with John Knight Hinton against Jane's brother Edward Knight (Austen) for his Hampshire property which failed.

The house is also associated with Cardinal Newman; a plaque on the wall reads "John Henry Newman, later cardinal, lived here with his parents 1816-1819"
