Hi Jen
I know this is a year down the track but any mention in the book of Symes. If so it would be Elizabeth.
Thanks

Hi Lyraea
No problem, I do pop in now and again.
There are inventories for Harry Symes, Esquire & his widow Ann Symes of Fram Cot - 19 Jan 1686/7
It's 2 & a half pages, with quite a few rooms so they were prolly reasonably off.
total £81 12s 7d.
My favourite bit after scanning through is "One paire of Sad Coloured Curtains with a Counterpaine 15s" &
"Three little old Sadd Colored Chaires 4s 0d"
hope this helps, pm me if you like xx Jen

Hi Jen
This is going to seem a bit silly but how do I do a PM. I know what it mean but have never done one before.
Anyway the ealiest Symes I have is John Symes (b abt 1794) and wife Mary? Their son William married Anna Westacott - they are all from Devon. Their daughter Fanny was born in Frampton Cotterell in 1847. It is possible they moved there because they had relations there but I haven't got nearly enough people in this family yet, ie siblings to know one way or the other. I will certainly keep a note of these people for when I find out more about them.
Thanks for your reply.

hiya.
I think for a pm you should click on the person's name but I hardly ever come on here so I'm not exactly sure.
Anyway, it's fine for you to post on this thread again if and when you would like more info - not that there are any more names mentioned! BUt if they ARE yours maybe we could work something out to give you the whole inventory.
Good luck with your research - I have let mine get in a mess and need to do some serious filing!
Post on here any time but be aware I'm not on too much.
xx Jen
