Hello everyone.

The burials are finally on line, and proof read.

There are still some entries that have the Latin/Middle English in their
original state, but the dates and names should be right.

I've been using Stan Castle's book for my research, and it really is great.

He does a house by house run down of who owned what property in Cocklake
over the years...it's a great way to get a feel for where your ancestors may
have lived...I know that its helped me find the house where my Tuttons
lived.

Also, Hazel Hudson will be having a new book out later this month...she will
let me know when it is available, so I can pass it on to you.  Her book will
be a collection of articles that have been published in the Isle of Wedmore
News over the years...but I'll give you more details in the coming weeks.

So, we've all got a lot to do...the burials to get through, buying Stan's
book and finding out more, then getting Hazel's book to find out yet more.

Eventually we'll have to arrange a GEDCOM swap of some sort, so that those
who want to share their family tree files can do that...I'm working on the
details.

I also have someone working out how I can make the parish records searchable
by Soundex (but don't hold your breath, he's just working on it).

Go get 'em.
