Find Ancestors

Just got back from work!

Liz had the discs and very kindly found that John Veale & Sarah Cobbly married 24/05/1826 at Dundry. Think I will check sites mentioned above and if not will order the cd to confirm the childrens baptisms.

Many thanks for everyone's input and if any of you ever need a Bristol baptism or marriage please let me know and I will check my discs

Marcelle

Marcelle - have you looked at the online catalogue of Somerset Records Office?

www.somerset.gov.uk/archives/

I notice one item they have is "Letters of administration of the estate of John Veale of Chew Magna, carpenter." dated 1846.

If you can't get to Taunton, they will provide copies of items by post for a reasonable fee and are very helpful on the phone.

I wonder if it could be 2nd marriage have you got them in 1841?

any dates for the children?

I think unless i had a birth cert i would'nt feel i was 100% sure of correct mother if there is a possibility of other surnames

Thanks Sam Spade. Will give it a go

No I haven't. I know you shouldn't take what other people tell you for gospel but one of the trees has a lot of info & fact on it (except birth cert) lol

It is a toss up between birth cert £7 or disc £8.50

have you tried groups.yahoo.com/group/somersetfamilyhistory a very good site with lots of records and helpful people

Forgot to say. I tried looking at Ancestry marriages but do not seem to have the access I use to have. Think they have changed what we can look at

so have you been able to confirm her maiden name with one of their birth certs?
