William Skeats Married Mary Ann Downs of Sandford Orcas 4TH May 1774. Any information would be gratefully appreciated

Hi

My maiden name was Woolford and my family were very prevalent in the West Parley, West Moors area in the early 1800s. Also Wimborne St Giles, Cranborne etc. Can anyone shed any light on the history of Woolfords Water - how it was named for instance. I do know that my great-great-grandfather George Woolford farmed somewhere in the area and part of the family married into the Hatchard family who also farmed. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
