    Family Henry Angel MOTYER,   b. 10 Sep 1822, Chiswell, Portland (Isle of Portland), Dorsetshire County (now Dorset County), England
    Chiswell is a small fishing village at the southern end of Chesil Beach, in Underhill, on the Isle of Portland in Dorset, and is the oldest settlement on the island. The small bay at Chiswell is called Chesil Cove.

    The village itself is almost indistinguishable from Fortuneswell, the largest village on the island, as the two settlements are very close. However, this distinction can be made: Chiswell occupies flat land close to sea level, whereas Fortuneswell's streets wind up and down the steep hills. Between the village and Fortuneswell, where the main road follows, is Victoria Gardens.
