Just thought I would mention this in case anyone else is looking for the same families.
I have been looking for extra information about the Newman family who lived in Castle St, Mere and Midlane family members.
In the 1851 census (according to ancestry.com) the data base has Newman transcribed as "Reuman" and Midlane as "Midland" which made them a bit tough to find!
