It included Robert b. 25/5/1804 in Modbury, Thomas b 30/1/1783. Mostly in North Huish and Ugborough. Does anyone know who the Descendancy belonged to and how I could contact them?

Where did you get your info from? Only yesterday I added a Edward YELLAND to my Tree, he was bapt 1 May 1778 at Ashburton and is the s/o William YOLLAND and Mary. [IGI] This Edward married Margaret BEER on the 7 Jun 1808 at Dean Prior, it was most likely his father William who was a witness along with William BEER. Edward [who by the way was an Excise Officer] and Margaret had 1 daughter that I know of, Mary Stranger Ford YELLAND bapt 1809 at Dean Prior. In 1851 grand daghter Mary OULD aged 19 yrs is living with widowed Edward at Stoke Damerel. I cannot find a baptism for Mary OULD. Does anyone have a connection to this Mary OULD. Is she Mary Stranger Ford YELLAND'S daughter?

I cannot find him in the PR's. Has anyone any knowledge of this Thomas TRIST? I looked at that the 1861 census Cd but nobody jumped out at me, mind you the first section is very difficult to read. Nothing shows up on Freecen either. I believe he married Matilda HOARE of Dean Prior bef 1880 [FreeBDM is down due to work being carried out on the system] so can't even double check that at the moment. Would love to hear from anyone who knows anything of him. Regards Bev.
