Hi, again, In the following message, and in relation to the message that I just sent about searching for information on the Elizabeth CAWSEY who married as the 2nd wife to my 8th great grandfather, (Sir) John EARLE, in that information I mentioned that he was born in 1612 in Somerton, Nye, Winscombe, Somersetshire, England, and then connected with the information regarding the BOWLES-LAWSON-CAWSEY, as shown below, and I will pick up after that below: In a message dated 12/10/2004 1:29:41 PM Central Standard Time, cokerrb@ns.sympatico.ca writes: <<Leathel Bowles wrote: The reason > for posting to both list about the Lawson- Cawsey is you will find some > surnames that are connected to both families.I guess I had better start back > in 1607 with Nathaniel Cawsey.

If anyone has any more information connecting this WINSCOMB(E) family group with the area of Winscombe, Somersetshire, England and the EARLE/EHRLE(I)GH/de E(H)RLEIGH family out of same and the CAWSEY/CAUSEY family that would probably connect to the Elizabeth CAWSEY who married as 2nd wife of (Sir) John EARLE, I would be most interested to hear. Thank you. Sincerely, Bellinda Myrick-Barnett
