Hi Nicole Yes, certainly sounds like Ilchester and maybe Ilchester Gaol was the place she was incarcerated too? Unfortunately the on-line list of prisoners for Ilchester http://www.somerset.gov.uk/archives/database/Prisoner.htm only includes early 19th century residents. I think that the Somerset Record Office should probably be your starting point: http://www.somerset.gov.uk/archives/somhome.htm Regards Paul Portland On Sun, 1 Apr 2001 21:20:10 +1000, you wrote: >Hi > >I have a convict ancestor Ann Viles or Vales who according to her >convict indent was born in Ilvechester Somerset in about 1768.

ROBERT came to Melbourne first in 1857 and then came onto New Zealand, within a short time. His Uncle, Robert Green VINCENT was in Sydney.

Hello listers I am looking for the whereabouts of Charles Major HOUSE and family. I know he was a provisions merchant in 1881, he was living at 14 Fore St Teignmouth on the census and I know he lived in Broomfield Somerset 1897 - 99 and then in Aisholt Somerset from 1899 until his death. I also know that he had left by 1893, he isn't in Kelly's for that year. The question that I am hoping someone can help me with is "when did he leave Teignmouth?" Perhaps SKS's with access to the various Kelly's Directories and the 1891 census for Teignmouth would tell me when he was living in Teignmouth and when he disappears. Thanks Andrew
There are records (1776) which state the parish or place of baptism as "Rinsworth, Somerset". A modern map of the UK does not show any such place. Can anyone shed light on this?

Gday Listers, I am new to this particular site but have been working thru the Gloucester site for some time. My family was born in Glstr but 2 members have "gone missing" and I am wondering if they travelled to a nearby county. I would appreciate it if SKS could do an 1851 census look up for me. Aaron and Mary ESSEX - Aaron age abt 47 Moses and Mary ESSEX - Moses age 45, Mary 43, plus daughter Sarah age 11. Moses, Mary and Sarah appear in Glster 1841 census. Either one could have a son Noah age agt 21-25.

I'm interested in Eliza NEWMAN who was born in Westbury in 1846 to John NEWMAN and Ann DEACON. In 1869 Eliza married Arthur SARTIN in Westbury. In 1874 Eliza married Charles CLARK in Barrow and in 1884 she married Noah ALLEY in Westbury. Her children were John CLARK 1874, Arthur CLARK 1877, Albert Thomas ALLEY 1886, Alfred Charles ALLEY 1887 and Ethel May ALLEY 1890. Eliza has been quite difficult to trace living in different parts of the country with different husbands. I'm particularly interested in finding her husband Charles CLARK and any siblings. In 1851 Eliza was living in Westbury with her grandparent's William and Betty NEWMAN and their children Charlotte 28, George 23 and Thomas 21. I don't know where her parents were. Hopefully, you've reached the end of this message and will contact me with a similar interest. Regards Jill Other Interests BRISTOL - Various Parishes.

Hi lists, I managed to track down a bunch of ROSSITER marriages which were covered in the index to the Marriage Allegation & Bonds of the Bishop of Bath & Wells held in fiche at Bristol R.O. One of these intrigues me as it has no date & could be connected with my line, The details are - James Rossiter of Foxcote, Carpenter and Elizabeth Shipton of Hemington, spinster aged 20, by parents consent to be married at the Cathedral or St Cuthbert's, Wells. Unfortunately there is no date associated with this bond. If SKS has the time I wonder if they could check either the PRs of St Cuthbert's, Wells or the PRs for Wells Cathedral to see when this marriage took place. - my guess is between 1650 & 1730. Or if SKS could have a look at the original (In Taunton R.O.) and let me know if there was a date mentioned. Looking forward to hearing from you soon All the best Dave Rossiter
