  Hi All

  I have John Green Comer born in the USA abt. 1860, I do not any =
evidence for this, other than he married Amelia Pitman there.I do not =
have his parents. can you help here please?

  Certainly Thomas Comer marr. Elizabeth Green 31/3/1842, Thomas was a =
Yeoman of Meare and Elizabeth a Lady of Theale. Thomas's father was John =
Comer, a Yeoman and Elizabeth's father John Green, a Farmer. The =
witnesses were John Green, John Comer, Frederick Barrow and Eleanor =
Green. All signed their own names. Page 42, record 83.

  I can see no trace of any of Thomas and Elixabeth's children in =
Wedmore. What's the source of the children please?

  I could not see a marriage of John Green Comer to Mary Ann Wall in =
wedmore 30/12/1864 - 2/11/1886. Neither could I see any banns after =
6/2/1881, the earlier banns are not available back to 1814.

  Regards

    Hi in particular to Karla,
           I do not know if you remember me but we did some e-mailing =
back and forth in connection with Walls and Bakers of Wedmore. I hope =
you are well.
           I was interested in your recent post regarding the Comers. =
Here is what I have.=20
           Thomas Comer baptized at Meare 22 Aug 1819 the son of John =
and Mary Comer. Thomas married Elizabeth Green at Wedmore in 1842 and =
they had at least the following children.
           John Green Comer , George Green Comer , Elizabeth Comer , =
Eleanor Maria Comer , William Comer , Mary Ann Comer and Edward Comer. I =
had not realised that John Green Comers first wife was Mary Ann Wall . . =
. perhaps Stan or John might do a marriage look up. I believe they had a =
number of children together. His second wife was Amelia Elizabeth Pitman =
the daughter of William Pitman baptized at Edington 20 Aug 1831. She is =
the eldest sister of Robert Lee Pitman mentioned in a recent post by Tim =
Curtin. There were at least six children by this second marriage. Both =
John Green Comer and William Comer emigrated to Iowa. Elizabeth Comer I =
have tentatively married to Henry Tabor Teek son of Mathew Teek of =
Chapel Allerton. Mary Ann Comer was the first wife of my Great =
Grandfather George Brown.
          George Green Comer was a lunatic but unlike nany others with =
this unfortunate condition was not institutionalised but rather kept at =
home. I vaguely remember my father telling me stories when I was a boy =
which he no doubt heard from his father about George becoming very =
eratic every full moon and his strange behavior. I recall being both =
intrigued and alarmed. The rest of the time he was apparently docile.
          I have nothing on Edward or Eleanor Maria.
          Please tell me more about the biography you mentioned and as =
to how I may get a copy.
          Besides ' your ' Richard Baker there is another Richard Baker =
born Nov 1825 that married a Jane about 1863 and was also a farmer at =
Worthington. He emigrated in 1846 and is no doubt a grandson of Richard =
Baker and Mary Wall but who were his parents? As regards your mysterious =
Jane Baker I remember searching long and hard for her with no results. =
The Jane Baker baptised 15 Feb 1829 daughter of William Baker and Ann =
Duckett I think we agreed married Gabriel Cox in 1853. Have you in fact =
now found her? If not I recently had a brainstorm regarding this =
individual . . . rare for me . . LOL. I thought what if you were =
mistaken about her surname . . . what if her given name was Jane Baker. =
A quick look in the census reveals a Jane Baker Toogood who was baptized =
at Wedmore 20 Oct 1842, my first cousin four times removed , living at =
Westham in 1851. Westham is just down the road from Heathouse the home =
of William Wall. The paternal grandmother of this Jane Toogood was =
Elizabeth Cock possibly written as Cox. This Jane could be the person =
you are looking for . . . she might be about seventeen or eighteen in =
1859. I hate to bother anyone for a look up again but if there is a =
marriage about 1859 between a Jane Toogood and a William Wall it might =
bear your scutiny.
