Sorry, I have another request about an Edward Dingley b:07 NOV 1874. Brother, John (don't know birthdate). John immigrated to New York and stayed, Edward immigrated 21 Oct 1891, was naturalized 20 June 1904 and lost his wife, Catherine (met and married in New York), in the sinking of the Lusitania as she was sailing back to her native Ireland to visit family.

Any chance you could check the census for somerset (Bridgwater and possibly Bristol) for 1875 - 1890? I'm thinking they were brothers of either William or James dingley of Bridgwater, Somerset (b: 1833 and 1835 respectively). They could even be grandchildren.

Any help appreciated!

Hello! Trying to find any information on the Dingleys of Bridgwater, Somerset in the 1850s or a bit earlier.

Henry J Dingley b:1830 in Bridgwater. Would like to know of parents, granparents, sibling. Possibly related to Edward Dingley b: 1827 in Bridgwater. Married to Francis (Fanny or Franny) in Bridgwater. Both of the Dingleys (and in Edward's case) came to America and settled in Richmond, Wayne County, Indiana. The only two sets of Dingleys that settled there at that time. Both left from Bridgwater and sailed a few years a part. Henry J first in 1852 followed by Edward and Fanny in 1856. St. Mary's Parish might have some answers but, I don't know how to access those records from over here.

Any help a blessing!!!
