I am new to the list, but have been reading the archives and find quite a
few references to Wall and Iowa.

First the basics:  My G Grandmother Annie Elizabeth Wall was born in Wedmore
Aug 1862.  She was the daughter of William Wall (believed to have been born
July 1835 - and baptized Wedmore 27 Aug 1835, son of Robert Wall & Sarah.)
and Amelia Wall, nee Wall, baptized 11 Mar 1841, daughter of William &
Elizabeth Wall, nee Tyley ? .  Amelia may be the Amelia Wall on the Free
B/M/D site   born Dec 1838 Axbridge - I don't know yet.

By the 1880 US census, the family was in Cascade, Dubuque Iowa arriving
sometime between 1862 and 1869 based on where the children were born.

I would enjoy hearing from anyone who thinks they have a link.
Also, I have some Wedmore (Only WALL) monumental Inscriptions I transcribed
in 1986 and some WALL baptisms not already on the list.  I also have copies
of page 73 (Aug-Sept. 1835) & page 129 (Mar 1841) from the Wedmore baptism
book.
Is there a way to send this to be included ?
I will be in Weston-super-Mare, Somerset next month and hope to visit
Wedmore again.  Last time in Wedmore, I was seeking information for my
mother who did most of the original research and has since passed away.  I
am just getting back to this line after 16+ years.
