I have come to a brick wall in my research. My 4th great grandfather, James Nicholls, was born in Sandford in about 1798. According to the certificate for his second marriage his father's name was John Nicholls. James was living in Sandford in 1841 when his occupation was given as "baker" and I've traced him to Wales where he married for the second time in 1853. I would love to find out more about his parents which may help me to move forward (or should that be back:))

Thanks Trish. I knew he'd moved to Trevethin as that is where he remarried.
