I am researching the family name of SPEARING from the Wedmore (1696) and 
Wookey area, my g-gf Benjamin was born at Wookey 1833 he had 5 brothers and 3 
sisters there names were Robert, Joseph, William, Edward, John, Leah, Hester 
and Elizabeth. Parents John Spearing and Margaret Bull with John's line back 
to William Speringe and Mary Rodford of Litton. Am interested in developing 
the branches of the family and in particular the SPEARING/SPERRING link (if 
any). Would appreciate any help and be willing to pass on all research so far 
in an effort to expand the family, have made contacts and some photo's are 
available. Benjamin joined the Army (54th regiment of Foot), served in India 
and settled in Bermuda, how he arrived there is an enigma. I will settle for 
now on finding family links in the Somerset area!
Look forward with interest to all replies
