That's food for thought! I shall have to think it through. Don't you wish they'd started the census earlier? Thank you, Trish.

Somerset / William EVANS, chr. 6th May 1755 Combe Florey, father unknown
« on: Sunday 20 August 23 05:00 BST (UK)  »
My gx5-grandfather, William EVANS, was chr. 6th May 1755 in Combe Florey, mother Ann Evans, father not listed. William married Elizabeth (Betty) CHORL(E)Y on 25th September 1780 at Kingston St Mary, and the family rolls on from there.

However, Ann Evans remains a mystery. The obvious thought is that she was a single woman but I can find nothing about her. There are two marriages, both in Taunton, in later years, one in 1760 to Joseph BRUFORD and another in 1770 to Nicholas CLARK but I place no faith in either of them. I haven't found any other children born to Ann.

I've long been inclined to put this lady away in the Too Hard Basket but every so often I look at her entry and wonder about her. Does anyone have any suggestions about proceeding further?

No Marriage agreement 1825/26.
Would that have any significance? I'm not familiar with marriage agreements.

Good grief! That's going to take some deciphering. And I see his bride, Mary Dogood there too, with a bit more family history to explore. Amazing work, Hallmark.

sorry Heywood only just saw this

I didn't have the marriage you gave and I have been researching the Rosiers as James brother who also was Transported John Rosier is my 3 xGreat Grandfather,
Hi, Sandiep! The Rosiers are an endless wealth of fascination. It seems that half of Tasmania is related to them at times. :) Much of my family history info is packed away in storage for the bushfire season right now but when it's safe I'll be retracing your ancestor's story.

Thank you, Hallmark! It's been a while since I wondered about some Irish connections and I'm most appreciative of your help.

Wow, Heywood, I am amazed at all this. Thank you so much. I'm going to need some time to absorb it all. That definitely explains the odd name 'Gaspaird' which had our family wondering.
