Greg Patch is looking for Somerset ancestors and others:
John and George PATCH were brothers who emigrated to NSW - John on 
Washington Irving from Weston Supermare (or possibly Plymouth) in 1857, 
George via New Zealand. They were natives of Bagley SOM and the sons of 
George Patch and Anne nee Rossiter. Sarah Patch (b. 1762/3 Meare SOM) was 
the mother of the latter George (father not known). Sarah (re-?) married 
James Parsons in 1799 Wedmore SOM.
Mary Ellen Norris was a native of Somerset but no other details, except that 
she was the paternal GGM of Greg Patch.
Phoebe Ganfield was of Meare SOM and was John Patch's wife. Phoebe's brother 
John Ganfield also emigrated to NSW.
All of the above appeared to have settled around Paterson/Gresford/Hinton in 
the Hunter Valley of NSW in the 1850s, and then moved to the Richmond River 
area of NSW in the 1870s.
Ambrose Rossiter was half brother to John Patch and emigrated to NSW on the 
Harriet in the early 1850s. He settled in Surry Hills (Sydney) where he was 
recorded as being a gardener.
Greg Patch would appreciate contact with other of these names from Somerset.
