Pat,
I really got excited seeing the father, John Radford as I am looking for a John
Radford who died somewhere in Somerset prior to 1848 according to his daughter,
Anne's marriage record in Toronto, Canada.  However, the birthdate I have for
Anne (unsupported with records other than family Bible) is 12 Sept, 1822 which
is too close to William born Dec 1822.  And no Anne listed.  Certainly is the
right time frame!  Do you have any information on any of the family you have
listed emigrating to Canada or the states in the 1840's?  My Anne Radford
married Joseph Parker, son of William Parker, born 29 March 1820 in Wedmore.
When they married they had a child named Sarah A. Parker living with them and
she was still in the home in 1860, age 16.  They had 3 sons in the Whitby,
Canada (near Tornonto) area prior to moving to near Dyersville, Iowa.  After
Anne's death in the early 1860's, Joseph Parker married Elizabeth (Betsey) Roper
Tincknell also from Wedmore area.
Any information would be greatly appreciated!  And Mary Jackes is right, I am
leaving on a month long holiday tomorrow morning but will check my Wedmore mail
when I get home.
Thanks,
Sandi McGinnis
