If you are seeking a Dare, there are many centred around Dorset, Somerset and into Devon. Dorchester Archives is a good place to start, and I believe there is a 'Dare' book! My father , born 1899, left Dorchester to work on the railways in Nottinghamshire. His name was Ernest Robert Dare [or Dear]. I know I have cousins in that area. There may be Irish connections, but doubtful. Researchers should also be aware that the first English baby born into a part of the New World was a Virginia Dare -so some of the family sailed with one group of the Pilgrim Fathers, though not the First Lot!!

Hello
I know this is a rather old post but I have just joined Genes Reunited.
I know from my fathers records that my 3x great grandmother was Hannah Dare, b. Powerstock 1806, married William Greening 1828 in Mosterton and gave birth to George Greening also 1828. Do you have any specific info about her ancestors please?
Many thanks
Max
