Title: St Thomas, East Wells & St Cuthbert, Wells Registers - SLY
Post by: Otmoor on Thursday 28 October 04 20:57 BST (UK)

My mother was Mary SLY, bn 29/09/1913, daughter of Ellen SLY bn 29/07/1871. I am trying to find full personal details of her grandfather George SLY. I know that he married Emma BROCK at St Thomas, East Wells on 05/11/1860. His parents were Edward and Jane SLY but I have no other details. George and Emma lived at Limibngton, where my mother was brought up. Any information would be welcome.

I dont know if u have 1891 info but I was having no luck in 1851 Somerset so thought it was worth a try to see just what that says and I find out in 1891...looks like u may need some Dorset info for George!
