I am interested in the FERRIS family in particular in Thurlbear and Taunton in Somerset.. My gggg grandfather was William Ferris, born about 1789 in Taunton and who married Suzanna Burley 16 April 1822 in Thurlbear. They had 4 children, - Nancy baptised 16 March 1823, - Louisa baptised 23 Jan 1825, - Elizabeth baptised 1 Apr 1827 and - William baptised 10 Oct 1829. Elizabeth married James Spiller (my line) in Thurlbear on 29 May 1849. I also know of descendants of William (the son). I confess, this is not one of the lines we have researched as much as we could, but I am still slowly trying to find out more. I would love to exchange messages with someone else on this family. Best wishes for all your researches Colin Spiller West Yorkshire
