Where is Carton Denham?
« on: Thursday 09 February 06 21:39 GMT (UK) »

 I have an relative born in Carton Denham in Somerset - as he stated on the 1881 census. But where is this village? I cannot find it on Multimap or on the GENUKI pages.

What is the nearest large town?

Thanks

Hi Burrow Digger,

I think it's Corton Denham:

Thank you Al, that makes a lot of sense.  ;D

Its close to Wincanton - which is where the family moved back to, some years later.

Thank you
