Notes:

I'm specifically researching events surrounding the illegitimate birth of my grandmother Beatrice Elsie Weymouth in the Axbridge workhouse in Dec 1894.  Her mother was Lilian Jane Weymouth (age 17 in that year) who was a domestic servant in WSM.  
DNA links us to the Young family.  Three sisters owned a boarding house at 13 Raglan Circus in the 1890's.  The likely father is their brother Tom Young born in 1863 and not resident in WSM.

Looking for references to the guesthouse, the Young family at that time and why my grandmother Beatrice was adopted by Mary Ann Millett (Parsons) in WSM. 

Would be pleased to hear from you. angela_willes@hotmail.com
