  Hello John
  The marriage cert. from St.Catherine's house states Benjamin Coombs =
Mapstone and Pammela Elizabeth Parker were married at "The Parish Church =
in the Parish of Wedmore" on October,11th 1848. Their age is cutely =
given as "Full Age".
  Pammela's father's profession is given as Carpenter and after Benjamin =
 describes himself as a Farmer on the wedding cert. he is later =
described as a carpenter.
  I have long suspected that his father-in-law taught him Carpentry =
perhaps as a better source of income for his new son-in-law and daughter =
which consequently led to two further generations of Mapstones ( Robert =
then Norman ) becoming Carpenters in there own right in Wedmore.
  I believe there may be some remaining articles of Norman Mapstone's =
work still in existence - perhaps Tim Curtin could set me right on that =
as I visited your parents many years ago and learnt there may be a =
bookcase and someting else still in use.
  Best Regards
  Martin.
