Hi Charani It sounds as though you've got your hands full with your family at the moment. Ouch, sorry to hear your daughter walked into a lamp post...was it dark:-) My de STRODEs should be on your CDs. I have them back to 1150...no, not to Adam and Eve but I have got so much info on them. How about the BROWN(E)s of Bowlish or Shepton Mallet. I know they are slightly outside our area but you did mention Somerset! Of course, this lot all had homes in London and/or Bristol as well so from that point of view, I am in the area! Good luck to your daughter, a broken wrist can be very painful. My daughter broke hers when she was running backwards...there was no lamp post there! Liz www.btinternet.com/~e.newbery OPC for Street, Somerset

There are quite a few BROWNEs but no BROWNS. However,neither Shepton Mallet nor Bowlish are included in the index which probably means the returns aren't extant. There are some CLOTHIERs and a CLOTHYER if you're interested. -- Charani (UK) OPC for Walton, Greinton and Clutton, SOM Asst OPC for Ashcott and Shapwick, SOM http://wsom-opc.org.uk
