Hi, the best thing to do is to write to the Somerset Record Office and ask for a copy of both the banns and the marriage from the original registers. FMP and the other sites are good but you need to see the original . life is hard . soften it with a cat \\\=^..^=/// ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Cowell via" <eng-somerset@rootsweb.com> To: <ENG-SOMERSET@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, October 20, 2014 4:20 PM Subject: [SPAM] [ENG-SOM] Richard WINDSOR and Milliar WILLIS > hello > > This is my first message to this mailing list.

Hi Ron This is somewhat off your request, but I am researching the Bennett family of West Camel for a cousin and on 16th January 1841 Thomas Windsor married Mary Bennett at West Camel, his father was listed as Thomas Windsor. I have the 1851 census which states that Thomas was born c 1814 at Queens Camel and that he was a Thatcher, with Mary his wife and 4 children. I couldn't find either of them in following censuses, but found a burial for a Thomas Windsor aged 38 at West Camel 25th November 1851. I have not managed to find anything else about the Windsors and wondered if these two Thomases were on your tree.
