 Hi
how do you know that ann's surname was Blake?
do you have a childs birth certifcate?
 I see they have a child in1841 aged 7mths if that was their first child normally would have been married around a year earlier?

Hi Cardiff

Yes I have her on son Edwin's birth cert 1850.

1851 shows three children Mary Ann, Elizabeth, Edwin. Shows Clayhanger as place of birth for Ann and Mary Ann. Others Bridgwater.

Husband Henry's Taylor line seem to be Bridgwater ( think I have found a bapt for him in 1822, son of James and Ann, parish Bridgwater), he was a shoemaker..

Yes I was looking around 1840 for a marriage, have been looking for years but no luck, makes me wonder if they were married ???  ::)

any ideas where else to search??

cheers
