    1. [ENG-SOM] SUTTON FARM, SUTTON BINGHAM - SAMUEL OSMOND
    2. I find my ancestors Samuel and Ann OSMOND and children in 1841 at a farm farmed by Edmund Laver and family, and next to the Rectory. Samuel was a farm labourer. By checking the 1861 Census [by which time Samuel and family had moved on] I find the Laver family farm was called Sutton Farm, and located between the Rectory and the Saw Mills. I was unable to locate it on a map of the area, and wondered if the name of the farm had been changed. The Rectory may currently be called Pendomer House, a B & B establishment. Also, in 1851 I find Samuel Osmond and family in the Poor House, Sutton Bingham, [it's not very clear, but this is what it looks like] and wondered if anyone knows where this was. Sutton Bingham is the earliest location I have found for the Osmonds, who were there from the 1700s onwards, and I hope to visit the village and locality. Samuel ended up at East Coker. Thanks for any help or advice, Wendy
