Richard Bowyer
« on: Monday 23 August 04 09:06 BST (UK) »
I am requesting a lookup - this is my first request so I'm not sure how to do it.  I saw Sarahneil's offer.

My ggg grandfather, Richard Bowyer and Mary Anne Scott were married in 1852 in Seavington St. Marys in Somerset.  I believe Richard, his family and his father Thomas (and mother Elizabeth?) were born in or near Membury, Devon.  Both Richard and his father were millers according to family stories.

I would appreciate if you could look up this family for me on the 1851 census.  (Mary Anne Scott wasn't born in Devon).

Many thanks,
Verna

Hi Verna

I just found your request for a lookup from Somerset 1851 and the reason it jumped out at me was because you were looking for a Scott from Seavington St Mary.

I also have connections with the Scott family from this area - my 3xGGF was Simeon Scott.

I found your Mary Ann Scott living in Seavington St Mary with her family in 1851:

SCOTT John 51 Ag. Lab. Seavington St. Mary.
Elizabeth 46 Glover Seavington St. Mary.
Sarah 22 Glover Seavington St. Mary.
Mary Ann 20 Glover Seavington St. Mary.
Anna 18 Glover Seavington St. Mary.
Thirza 11 Glover Seavington St. Mary.
William 9 Seavington St. Mary.
Elizabeth 6 Seavington St. Mary.
John 2 Seavington St. Mary.
LOCK / LOOK Walter 3m Seavington St. Mary.


Hope that helps if you hadn't already found her!

Best wishes
