Hi~ I am trying to find my grandmothers family Sarah Elizabeth Jones nee Welch I believe her parent are buried in Shepton Beaucham. Family memories say the parents were originally from seavington St Michael. Family also say that my grandmother was born on 3rd July 1889 in Conneticut USA but can find no records. My grandmother married David J Jones in 1915 in Pontypridd. I don't know when the Welch's died. Is there anything in the parish records~ or anyone who might have any info on them

My Father Ilford and his Brother Reginald were born at Ilford Bridges in the early 1900s**Their parents were James and Elizabeth Welch. Elizabeth was the daughter of Levi and Mary Ann Woodland (nee Trott) I believe her family came from the Donyatt area. While living at Ilford Bridges they were butter and cream farmers. After an influenza epidemic in the early 1900's in which my grandma lost both parents and her daughter They left Ilford Bridges and made their way to Brisbane Australia Levi and Mary Ann ran the Butchers Arms in a nearby village**My grandfather was a returned British Lancer having served in India as corporal/drummer. He was the son of a John Welch

Looking for information on the descendants of Robert Harris (born abt 1806) and Ann Bridge (born abt 1806). Robert was a blacksmith in Allowensay~ Somerset. Robert died in 1845 and Ann remarried to a Mr. Tucker and lived in Combe St. Nicholas. Robert and Ann had a daughter Mary Ann (married 1. Alfred Vickery 2. Edmund Harris) and lived at Townsend in Seavington St. Mary. I am particularly looking for Tom Harris (b. 1876)(son of Mary Ann and Edmund) who married Ada Long (daughter of Sidney and Emma Gude Long). Happy to share information.

I am hoping to find anyone who knows of a family named Marks who lived in South Petherton in the early 1800's. John Ernest Marks died and his widow~ Jane~ and a number of the younger members of the family migrated to Australia to join a son who was alredy there. Another son eventually settled in Australia following army service in India. Several of the older children of the family remained in Somerset and eventually married and had families of their own. **If you know anything about this family I would love to get an email from you.

Dear Friends of Langport. I was evacuated here in 1939 from Barking ~ London. I was first billeted with Mr & Mrs Shepherd~ and then a Mr & Mrs Woods. Friends that I can remember are the Elsom's that had a farm not far away from the Shepherd's. I would like to be contacted from an persons from that period of history. I am now living i New Zealand but can remember my schooldays in Langport~ haymaking with the Elsom's~ picking cider apples. hand milking cows~ and fishing on the River Parret. With thanks.
