Hi Josephine I echo what so many wise people have been saying in emails to you...don't give up! I have certainly appreciated your help over the years and your kind tone which always shines through. Please don't hesitate to send me snippets you may come across even tho we made contact many years ago. I'm still trying to find the first name of Sarah's husband from the 1790s...and Sarah's surname. Sarah --- married ---- LATCHAM sometime before 1799, prob close to the end of the decade. She was my 3x great grandmother who married Richard DUNN, widower, 23 Jan 1799. Sarah LATCHAM was a widow at that marriage. They married in St Cuthbert's, Wells. Richard was of St James, Bristol and Sarah of the out parish of St Cuthbert's, both of the age of 23 years and upwards, according to the marriage licence. Because I haven't had any luck finding Sarah's first marriage I am engaged in a one-name study of LATCHAM/ LATCHEM collecting all info I come across re anyone with the name so any snippets are much appreciated Wouldn't it be wonderful if someone reading this email was another descendant!!! All best wishes, Josephine and everyone, for 2014 Marjorie (Latcham) Keates

Hi Marjorie Not a LATCHEM and not connected (so far as I am aware) but there are/were LATCHEM in Frome. Fred used to operate a Taxi firm. Jim

How is this for coincidence? I have never really come across the name Latcham/em before and just as I was reading this message, the very word, a Chris Latcham was announced giving a sports report on Radio 4 news!
