I have just looked at the LDS Ancestral File for the Taunton Ma line, and here is the printout of the beginnings of that line. Somerset & Herefordshire are both counties in the UK, so I really wonder how accurate this info is. I don't think we can even begin to think that the Taunton Ma line comes from Thos Caswell & Ellen Bothworth. perhaps someone just guessed this!
