I'm looking for John Merrett born 1841 North Bradley.
I have some information which suggests that his parents were John and Ann, with siblings Hanna 1827 Mark 1830 Ann 1833 Jane 1835 but I have no records to verify that this is true.
many thanks
Trish

Hi,
Looking on the 1851 in North Bradley
I only find the one John Merrett of suitable age. (There was another, but, age 61 living alone.)
H.O. 107/1842 CENSUS No. 2. Part of the Parish of North Bradley, Church Lane, The Corner , Bradley Common, Organ Pool Ireland, Brokerswood, Honeybridge Sodom Lane.
Page 8
MERRETT John 39 Ag. Lab. North Bradley, Som. Anna 54 Former Domestic Duties Servant Westbury Wilts James Brother 26 Ag. Lab. North Bradley, Som.
I could find no child John Merrett.

Hi Sue
Many thanks for looking. John(Jnr) did marry in Melksham (and his 11 children were born there), would it be possible to check that area to see if the family moved there early in his life?

Its sometimes a worry that it seems to be a lifetime job tracing other peoples lifetimes! I met a 4th cousin once removed via the net, when I had not long started researching. He had been doing it for 15 years & tells me he will probably never get to "the end" of the task. After 2 years I feel I have just started!
Many many thanks for finding all these folks for me. They may all slot together one day.
Best wishes
Trish
