Leigh ???
« on: Friday 29 August 14 21:40 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I have a marriage in Kilmersdon, where the groom is of "Leigh".  Would this be "Leigh on Mendip" or "Leighland" ?? 

Then I need to find PR's

Cheers,
Spark

The parish of Leigh on Mendip is only 3 miles south of Kilmersdon. Leighland is 42 miles away

Thanks Stan,  I was thinking that way, but wanted another opinion too.
