Hello Beverley Thank you so much for this offer. Will you lookup Webber, Geard, Connuck (also spelt Cunnock, Connock or Counnock) and Keetch of either Montacute or Chard, Somerset. I hope to return the favour when I receive my ordered copies of the 1851 censuses. Cheers Sue In Western Australia - where it's already tomorrow!

Thank you for the kind offer. Can you find NETHERCOTT in Taunton St James [piece 1618], and also in Old Cleeve[piece 1603] and Bedminster [1705]. I have copies of all Nethercotts in Dulverton, but have a list of others by that name throughout Somerset, just with piece numbers. There are more, but I didn't want to push my luck! I am seeking a rather careless ALICE who had 3 or 4 illegitimate children in Dulverton c. 1795 but was not baptised there! She may have married of course, but not found. Wendy
