Hi Howard, you may remember that a while ago I raised a query about =
Hortery Hill. Without a gazetteer of Somerset place names I have not yet =
been able to follow it up. However the following record might just =
interest you. I found the record in Vol 3 no1 of The Duckett Family =
Research News. "St. Cuthbert's Parish Church, Wells, Somerset; =
Marriages, William Duckett of Horters? (not my question mark) Hill of =
this parish to Ann Brown also of this parish, by banns 25th January =
1794." I am familiar with this record from other places, but have not =
seen the original. Although William and Ann were both born in Wedmore, =
they lived at Milton, which is a hamlet on the north and north-west side =
of Wells, it is on the side of the Mendip Hills the roads are quite =
steep in places. This is about nine miles north east of Wedmore. Matthew =
Duckett.
