Hi Wendy, I have looked at Philip Clements tree and I am aware that there are some mistakes with it, However, I have seen the name Amy Tomlinson on other trees so thought there might be some validity in the name.

Unfortunately, I do not live in Somerset so it is difficult to check parish records. My great granmother married her second husband and moved to Yorkshire with my grandfather as a child. hence the yorkshire branch of my tree!!

Sandra

why is that interesting?

Interestingly they are living next to John Short 1851/61/71

It is brill,just wish both sides of my family came from somerset :)

Sandra did you get the info that he married amy tomlinson from phillip clements tree on rootsweb?if so don't take it as gospel as he has several people wrong.

Thanks, for the web site Wendy, I have a big branch of my tree in Somerset, so it will be very useful and may help with other queeries. I have had a quick look and it looks really good - I wish had known about it a few weeks ago!!

Sandra

Me neither Lindylu

children are listed and mothers maiden name put on

www.bathbmd.org.uk

it's a must if you have family in north somerset

Wendy, where did you get the name Emery from?

Sandra

I think we need a second opinion on the mothers name on 1861 census...

Source Citation: Class: RG9; Piece: 1680; Folio: 66; Page: 6; GSU roll: 542850.

Sydney,Eliza,Elizabeth,Sarah,Henry.mothers maiden name was Emery.I agree with jim think they are one and the same.No marriage listed for them as it must have been before 1837

1871
Sydney Bryant Amey abt 1849 Litton, Somerset, England Son Midsomer Norton, Somerset
1851
Sydney Bryant Thomas,Emily abt 1848 Litton, Somerset, England Son Midsomer Norton, Somerset

This seems to indicate that Emily may really be Amy

Sydney in 1871? with mother Amey?

Thanks all, I knew you would come up with the information. I have struggled for days with this one, and just could not dislodge any bricks.

As Sarah & Mary are on the earlier census with Amy I would try ordering the birth cert of the youngest child on 1851.

This could be your Thomas married to Amy. Shows Sarah and Mary as her children.
