I have Day, Meaker and Durston connections. Do you have any 'Harding' connections which is my main research from village of Stawell. Probably all related somewhere along line as nearly all families of small villages intermarried.

Most of mine come from various villages of Stawell, Catcott, Chedzoy, Edington. Nearly all were married at Moorlinch Parish Church which was the Mother Church for surrounding Villages.
Maria Day born 1840 Chedzoy married George Harding b.1842 Stawell
Elizabeth Durston married John Holly at Catcott 1794
Mary Meaker bap. 1772 Stawell marr. John Periam at Moorlinch Church. 1794
I also have a James Day b. Wedmore 1849 who marr. Mary Ann Harding 1871 who emigrated to U.S.A

If you have a connection to any of these, let me know and I will let you have any info I have.
Woolavington is very close to Villages I have mentioned.
Good luck with your research. Syljun
