Hello I am trying to trace George Biddiscombe born around 1800 in Marston Magna, parents william and Mary (cottle). He moved to Canada when he was a young man but it is believed that he returned to England . There is no record of him in Canada after 1860. He also married around 1825 in England but I don't know to who.
Many Thanks
Sarah23

Hello,
Thanks for replying, Yes Marston Magna is in Somerset, Bordering Dorset. I am hoping to trace what happened to him when he returned to England. Also on his marriage certificate it says he lived in Tiverton Devon
Regards
Sarah
