Just an observation regarding the subject of our Wedmore wanderers. I have a
post card that my Great Grandmother, Annie Tincknell sent to my grandmother
Mabel when she was working for Mrs Wookey Duckett  at Blackford. It is hard
to read the date but I think it would be about 1905, admittedly later than
our main discussions, but what struck me is that she said "your Aunts are
going to Canada AGAIN (my emphasis) as if it was quite a regular occurrence.
They weren't her sisters as she didn't have any kin so they must be
Tincknell aunts. I know we ended up with a cousin, Prue Burgess in Canada
but have never been able to establish who she is or who the aunts were.
Sounds like everybody was into it by then.
