    Hello Brian, I forgot to call yesterday but I've just had a chat & they don't have any records for that time.
    The young lady suggested that you could write to 'The North Somerset Primary Care Trust' & ask if they have any records but she doesn't hold out much hope.
    As they have some records from the 1960s she thinks maybe earlier records may not have survived.

    Brian, a couple of my Gloucestershire ancestors were patients at the Sanatorium, too. I managed to find some background information on it through the Gale Newspapers site. I can let you have what I found if you pm me with your email address.

    Vivienne, hope you don't mind me posting this on your thread.

    Somerset records

    Vivienne,
    Think you have kindly helped me before. Still trying to trace my william. born to william and mary hayes cheltenham, December 23rd 1803
    Turned up a William Hayes/ Mary Newman marriage, Meare, Somerset, 9.11.1803. Anything at all on that?. Possibly shot-gun?

    IF it easy for you, anything else which might be connected to the above and
    might disprove my theory, would be appreciated.
    Meare doesn,t appear to be on the Hugh Wallis

    Many thanks to your good-self. Happy days

    Hi Vivienne, have you had a chance to do any further digging for me on my distant twigs? Have been away from this for a few weeks, sorting out work and boring stuff like that!

    Hope you had a good Chistmas.
    All the best,
    Andy

    Hi Vivienne,
    Any chance of you looking up the following for me please?

    I have a Thomas Hares (Ayres/Hare) Born about 1797 in Shipham Somerset, who married Hannah ??? born about 1795 also from Shipham.

    Source 1841 census.

    On their daughter's marriage cert the name appears to be spelt as Haers.

    I'm not certain but think Shipham may come under Axminster. I seem to recall seeing it somewhere many moon ago.

    Would be great if I could discover Hannah's maiden name and when and where they married but I won't be holding my breath. These 2 are very elusive, with only the one sighting of them in 1841.
