Hi All

response to the entire List as feel we should share these concerns.

in Council Bluffs.  I particularly noted it as there are Millards in my
mother's

birth--father's family lived in Shenadoah (near Council Bluffs for those of

minimal info

George Millard, father of Ann who married Wm Parker 14 May 1840.

Ann Millard was baptised 15/4/1821 in St. George's, Wedmore, dau. of George
and Heather Millard, George was a Surveyor of Wedmore. 160/847.

For Ann's marriage George was also a surveyor. 31/61.

In the registers Julia is quite clearly Julia Coombs, not Coombe Mapstone.
Her mother was Mapstone.
