    1. [WSX] Big house in Yeovil abt 1913?
    2. Maureen Jones
    3. Hello My grandmother always told me that her mother worked as a parlour maid in a 'big house' in Yeovil. She met my great grandfather when he was visiting with a friend who was 'stepping out' with another maid. My gr grandparents, Lilian Clegg and George Burrows were married in Yeovil in November 1914. The next day, George went off to war. I have no idea what George was doing anywhere near Somerset, as he was born in Shoreditch, London. I'm wondering whose house Lilian may have been working in at the time. Anyone know? Taryn Jones Canada __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

    1. [WSX] George and Mary Ann COX family living in Wedmore, Somerset, England 1851
    2. Staudt
    3. Hello, I am trying to research the following family living in Wedmore, Somerset, England at the time of the 1851 Census. I would very much like to make contact with someone who knows about this family, or who is descended from this line. I believe the Eliza Ann COX listed below is the second wife of my g.g.grandfather, William WALL and together they had 11 children. They married between 1860-1862 in England, probably the Wedmore area. I am trying to prove/disprove that this is the correct Eliza Ann COX. I have a great deal of descendant information that I would like to share/swap - many of the names are very similar. 1 George COX b: Bet. 1809 - 1810 in Berrow, County of Somerset, England . +Mary Ann UNKNOWN b: Bet. 1820 - 1821 in Weddington, County of Somerset, England ... 2 Ann Harriet COX b: Bet. 1839 - 1840 in Mark, County of Somerset, England ... 2 Eliza Ann COX b: Bet. 1840 - 1841 ... 2 George Edward COX b: Bet. 1843 - 1844 in Blackford, County of Somerset, England ... 2 Delilah COX b: Bet. 1844 - 1845 in Blackford, County of Somerset, England ... 2 William COX b: Bet. 1846 - 1847 in Blackford, County of Somerset, England ... 2 Louisa COX b: Bet. 1847 - 1848 in Edington, County of Somerset, England ... 2 Leopold COX b: Bet. 1848 - 1849 in Blackford, County of Somerset, England ... 2 Julia Ann COX b: Abt. 1851 in Blackford, County of Somerset, England Thank-you for your help!

    1. [WSX] BAKER family of Wedmore, Somerset, England
    2. Staudt
    3. Hi! I am looking for more information on the following BAKER family. They are listed in the 1851 Somerset Census for Wedmore. All of them were listed as being born in Wedmore as well. The mother Anne, is listed as a widow, so her husband had d. prior to 1851. Given the ages of the four children listed, there may have been more children in the family that had already moved out. I believe that the Jane BAKER listed as a daughter may be my g.g.grandmother. I would like to share/swap information on this family and see if I can prove/disprove the relationship. I have a lot of descendant data to share. 1 Unknown BAKER . +Anne b: Bet. 1793 - 1794 ... 2 William BAKER b: Bet. 1821 - 1822 ... 2 Jane BAKER b: Bet. 1828 - 1829 ... 2 Anne BAKER b: Bet. 1831 - 1832 ... 2 Edward BAKER b: Bet. 1834 - 1835 Thank-you for any light you can shine on this family for me!

    1. [WSX] Marriage records
    2. Staudt
    3. Would someone please explain what type of marriage records might exist, and where to find them for the Wedmore area of Somerset? Was there both civil and church weddings at that time? I do not think William WALL was Catholic, as he helped build, and was a member of a Methodist-Episcopal Church upon his arrival to the U.S. I am looking for two different marriages, for my g.g.grandfather and his first and second wives: William WALL b.1832 mar. Jane BAKER - they were married by 1859, possibly earlier. the other: William WALL b.1832 mar. Eliza Ann COX sometime between Aug 1860 and the end of 1863. Their first born child was b.10 Jan 1863. I appreciate any help you are able to offer! Karla Staudt staudt@cptelco.net Ticonderoga, NY, U.S.A.

    3. Mary, Did a quick search of the internet and found the following definition of Linitis Plastica (at http://www.echt.chm.msu.edu/courseware/blockII/Pathology/GI-Stomach_39.html) - it is "a highly infiltrative type of gastric carcinoma". In other words, a very nasty type of cancer of the stomach. There is more detail on what it is like at that site. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mary Haskell <mary-haskell@beeb.net> To: <WESSEX-PLUS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, 23 March 2001 8:35 AM Subject: [WSX] Current medical terminology > I have recently received a copy of my mother in law's death certificate, and although I have looked at a couple of web sites I cannot find anything like the cause of death given.

    2. MANDY
    3. I have a copy of the Universal Home Doctor that was my father's and I nearly disposed of it but have found it invaluable for looking at causes of death. There is listed a condition called Phlegmasia which reads This term applies to a condition which may occur during the lying-in period of childbirth in which the leg or legs become swollen, due to phlebitis, or inflammation of the veins. The condition is medically known as phlegmasia alba dolens but is more commonly called white leg. Hope this helps Mandy

    3. Cool! One for the 'useful info' folder. ----Original Message Follows---- From: David Hawgood <David_Hawgood@compuserve.com> To: WESSEX-PLUS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [WSX] Finding Children on IGI Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2001 10:30:51 -0500 Joy Hungerford asked about the technique required to squeeze a list of children from FamilySearch. Paul Benyon replied with the technique using the batch number, which gets out all children if the family in the same batch - usually all the children in the same parish. There is an alternative, which gets children in several parishes. Don't put any names for the child - not even the surname. Put in the surname and forename of the father, and the forename of the mother. You can choose a country and county, and a range of years. You cannot choose exact spelling. As an example, put Michael Cass as name of father, Mary as name of mother, British Isles as region. You get 9 matches, with two parishes in Yorkshire and one in Lincoln - and it is all one family (and it's mine!). If you get too many hits it is worth adding the maiden name of the mother - but this loses a lot of genuine matches where the mother's maiden name is not in the record. For example, try children of Henry Hawgood and Maria, then try children of Henry Hawgood and Maria Pennestone - the first gives children from different families in Pembrokeshire and Rutland, the second reduces it to the family in Rutland. regards, David Hawgood. ==== WESSEX-PLUS Mailing List ==== Do you know about the Free BMD Project and Free Census?
