Hi
Have been looking at the1841 census and believe that I have found the =
family of my great great grandfather, Joseph Parker b. 1820.  Family =
records indicated his father's name was William Parker and that they =
were from Wedmore.  I have found the following on the 1841 census:
Parish:  Bleadon,  County: Somerset,  Place:  Shiplet
William Parker age 55 Blacksmith
Mary               age 55
Joseph            age 20 Ag Lab
Samuel           age 18
Eliza              age 16
Emma            age 13
Hannah           age  7

My 2 great grandfather, Joseph, named his oldest son William, then =
Samuel also two daughters, one named Mary & the other Emma so looks like =
a real possiblity that this is the correct family.   However, I don't =
know if Bleadon is near Wedmore?  Or where the place name Shiplet might =
be.  Could someone help me with this?

Is there anyone else researching this family?  Would be glad to share =
information.
Thanks
