Hi Lynn,
     And thanks for the information. If you reference the George Stagg =
family in 1881 Census for Wedmore you will find Mary Tincknell with as =
memory serves me three children. Her husband Henry is still living =
though not present.
     Regards,
            Stephen L. Brown      slb2@ix.netcom.com

  Hi Stephen and all.
  =20
  I think it might be me you are thinking of re Tincknells.  I was on =
walkabout. :) I have Henry Tincknell (the son of Benjamin Tincknell and =
Ann Cord) and Mary Ann Cooper but no issue for them. I will have to =
check my files thoroughly as I know of a Stagg connection somewhere =
(perhaps from the same census as you). The Sarah Tincknell you mention =
was the daughter of Simon Tincknell and Sarah Pople and I have not =
traced a marriage for her yet, so you may be correct in your thoughts.
  =20
  If I find anything I will let you know.

      Hi again Fay,
            O.K. so I got one out of three . . . LOL. So just to =
finalise things . . it is the George Wall son of Robert Wall and Sarah =
Clarke baptized 12 Jun 1848 that married Eliza Jane Brown. The =
discrepency in their ages in the 1881 Census is not a problem. So here =
we have another example of two brothers marrying two sisters.
            I might be able to add a little information on the George =
Wall son of Mark Wall and Ann Gummer that married Louisa Brown. The =
following entry is taken from Mark 1851.
      Yarrow=20
      WEST Thomas 74 Farmer 14 Acres Mark, Som.=20
      Ann 33 Mark, Som.=20
      GUMMER Mark Wall son 3 Scholar Mark, Som.=20
      WEST Joseph Servant 15 Farm Servant Mark, Som.=20
            I interpret this as Ann daughter of Thomas West marries a =
person by the name of Gummer who then dies. She then has an illegitimate =
child christened Mark Wall Gummer whose father is Mark Wall. Entries =
such as this often indicate a woman that has been traduced however in =
this case we know that Mark Wall and Ann Gummer married within a year or =
so and that they had a son George who became the husband of Louisa =
Brown. Mark Wall is the son of James Wall and Hannah also listed in Mark =
1851.
            Now there is a marriage at Wedmore on 19 Jan 1815 between =
James Wall a resident of Mark and Hannah Popham. They have a son George =
baptized at Wedmore 7 Feb 1815 whose father James is listed as a farmer =
of Westham. After this entry they dissapear to my knowledge from the =
Wedmore registers. Can we assume that they moved to Mark soon after this =
and named their next son for their new home. I have seen examples of =
this were children are baptized Wookey or Widcombe when the family have =
moved to these communities although it is usually as a second given =
name. It is a great clue sometimes in genealogical work. If this first =
assumption is correct then they are the same James and Hannah Wall in =
Mark 1851. It seems most likely. Who the parents of this James Wall and =
Hannah Popham are I do not know. Some of the Popham people here might =
know the answer.
           As to the Mary Tincknell I did find a marriage of one Mary =
Ann Cooper to a Henry Tincknell in Mar 1872.
      Also the following entry in 1851 Wedmore at Bagley might shed some =
light.
      31=20
      WARD Thomas 64 Penioner Ag. Lab Wedmore, Som. B. Wife 47 Wookey=20
      COOPER M.A. Daughter 8 Scholar Wedmore, Som.
           A rather cryptic entry indicating that a B. married a Cooper =
who died in the late 1840's possibly buried at Wookey. This B. then =
married Thomas Ward. I also found a marriage between a Betsey Read and a =
William Cooper in Jun 1842. I think we can assume that this Betsey Read =
is the B. in the above and that M.A. Cooper is Mary Ann Cooper future =
wife of Henry Tincknell. There is a marriage record at Wedmore in 1828 =
between a Thomas Ward and Sarah Ganfield but no burial record for a =
Sarah Ward. The designation of pensioner almost always means Chelsea =
Pensioner so Sarah could of died and been buried anywhere from Gibralter =
to Calcutta.
           In 1881 Wedmore there is a Mary Tincknell age 38 at the home =
of one George Stagg and his wife Sarah. Marys husband is not present but =
she is listed as a sister in law. I know there is someone here at the =
group who specialises in Tincknells whose name escapes me but I believe =
we are looking for a marriage between this George Stagg and a Sarah =
Tincknell. This Sarah Tincknell could well be the daughter of Simon and =
Sarah Tincknell close neighbours of Thomas Ward at Bagley. If they also =
had a son Henry then . . . case closed.
           You are correct about so many Somerset people migrating to =
South Wales for work. There is one other Brown family of Wedmore located =
at Whitchurch , Glamorgan in the 1881 Census. The wife Jane and three =
children are at home. The father and another son would seem to be =
visiting Wedmore at the time although the father seems to have avoided =
enumeration. See the Wedmore entry for Alfred Brice. I am sorry to say I =
have no knowledge of these folks.
           Finally you did not mention the Ann Wall that married Joseph =
Brown . . . do you have any information on her?
           Best wishes Faye and keep up the good work.
                    Yours,=20
