Thank you very much indeed, Graham, for sending the grave reference number for Christina Lace; I really am most grateful, and look forward to my visit before long. Her grave is very near to great grand father on the other side of the family, a strange coincidence. I've learnt so much since having my Society membership. Thanks again and to Pat.

Jasmine Bates' recent comment
published by - 9 years 14 days ago.

I fully agree with your comments, Jasmine, relating to Pat's recently published research - I too found it extremely interesting.

Last week I was able to make the journey to Weston to explore the area and obtained copies of relevant entries on the 1839 tithe map from Weston Library from very helpful staff,  and also took photos of the areas where my husband's Jakeway family originated. 

I found a useful book, Weston-super-Mare in watercolours, by Rosie and Howard Smith, beautifully illustrated with lots of information about Weston's history - particularly helpful to those of us who are strangers to the town.

I only recently joined W-s-M FHS and have been very impressed by the amount of help and advice provided.


FISHER Family

Hi There,

Your comment about the FISHER's caught my eye. John FISHER b. 1752 who married Susana BAKER b. 1761 in 1783 in Wick St Lawerence are direct descendants of mine. Would be interested to hear if John & Susana FISHER and the John & Deborah FISHER you mentioned are connected in any way. 

Regards.

Heather

Fantastic! Thank you so much I will pass this on to a friend who is reseaching this family. I'm not sure what his relationship is with George but he was keen to find out more and this you have provided in detail.  Are you related to George?
