>A recent item in the "Duckett Research News" caught my attention and is 
>unresolved. The Item was published in The Greenwood Tree, Autumn 1982, 
>vol.7, number 4, and originally came from Allerton, Badgworth, Biddishham 
>and Weare Monthly Magazine and Parish Register, April 1869. " A party of 
>emigrants ... to sail March 31st. (1869) ... for Dyersville, Iowa. Among 
>their number ... children from Weare: William Duckett...".
>The Greenwood Tree is is the journal of Somerset & Dorset Family History 
>Society. The Parishes mentioned are all small parishes to the west of 
>Wedmore. I assume from the dots that information has been omitted in the 
>final extract, and that families other than Duckett were recorded, I have 
>not seen the original.
>From a Duckett point of view I have a problem, my own direct family were in 
>Weare in 1851 but are not involved. The only other family are,
>Edwin 35, carpenter, born Wookey.
>Sarah 30 ,(nee Binning).
>Mary Ann 9.
>William Brown 6.
>Elizabeth 3.
>A search of the Weare Parish Records has found one other relavent record; 
>Fredrich John baptised 11 4 1854 (Edwin is now a farmer). The 1861census is 
>negative for Weare and the other parishes. By 1869 William Brown Duckett 
>would be 24, hardly a child. Any American information appreciated. I do not 
>know if other issues of that Parish Magazine have survived.
