Can anyone help me?
I'm researching the Bond/Hartnell family trees; they lived in Langton Budville and Runnington.
Samuel Bond married Dinah Hartnell and, at the time of the 1871 census, they were living in Cutty Wren's Nest, Runnington.
Can anyone tell me whether the Cutty Wren's Nest cottages still exist.... and where the name originated?
If anyone knows (or is related to the Bond and Hartnell families), it would be a bonus.
Thanks.
Hilary

Trying to trace any ancestors of Burstons from Milverton and surrounding areas. My mothers maiden name is Burston and we have quite a big family and would love to add to it where possible.

I Will be travelling to Milverton as part of a family history tour and would be interested in seeing the house my Great Grandparents lived in. I think it was across from St. Michael's Church.

I was wondering if someone could help me. My Grandmother used to live at Pyleigh cottage when I was a child and I have some wonderful memories of visiting every summer until she died~ when I was 16.****I have never been brave enough to return to the village~ for many reasons~ so I just wondered if anyone had any pictures of the cottage or even of the surrounding countryside~ so I could see what it looks like now. ****I would be extremely grateful if someone responds! I just want to jog some of favourite memories without having to go back entirely.****Many thanks ****Charlotte Stone
