Thanks Penny
I had both the marriages but unfortunately do not have access to 1911 census to be able to trace any offspring born during the period 1901 - 1911.
Both Henry Hams are on my tree.
Haven't found them all yet but to date have found over 300 HAMs from around the Axbridge area (all related) , although it's abit confusing at times as Hams marry Hams.
Regards
David
