Thank's for the information, that's fantastic, did you notice if John and Ann Edmonds had any other children I know they had a son William who came to Australia on the same ship as Susan

In 1851 the census has them as follows:

Overstratton, South Petherton, Somerset
John ELLIOTT   28, ag lab
Susan ELLIOTT   29, glover(?)
George ELLIOTT   5
Mary Ann ELLIOTT   3
Ann ELLIOTT   1
all born South Petherton

Freereg has the birthdate of Emily ELLIOTT (who was on the ship but not born in time for the census) as 6 July 1851 and her baptism date as 10 August 1851.

FreeReg has a marriage for John and Ann EDMONDS at South Petherton, 15 September 1818.

Also these baptisms with parents John and Ann EDMONDS
13 Jun 1819   EDMONDS   William   
06 Jan 1822   EDMONDS   Susan   
28 Sep 1823   EDMONDS   Joseph - I think his burial was 12 Feb 1826

Perhaps this is the burial for Ann

South Petherton, Ss Peter and Paul   
Burial Date   22 Jun 1825
Ann EDMONDS, 28

There is a marriage in 1827 for a John EDMONDS, widower, to Mary STONE (no details given for her)

Did John ELLIOTT die in Australia as there are a number of public trees which suggest that Susan later married George KINGDOM in NSW?

Cheers, Judith

 Hi Judith
There is a record of John Elliot dying in a Parramatta Lunatic Asylum on the 15th of April 1855 although the dates tie in, there is no real evidence that it is my John.and yes Susan married George Kingdom in Armidale NSW.
Thank's again for your help it is very much appreciated

Hi Robyn -did you want any more?

I was in the South Petherton area just last month as my niece has a house at Stoke sub Hamdon which is only 3 miles away from Over Stratton.  It is beautiful country-side, still very rural.

Hi there, I'm a bit confused as I'm new to this site.  Just came across it the other day and saw the name Susan Ann Edmonds.  My name is Judi and I'm Susan's great-great granddaughter living in Australia.  My lineage comes from John Elliott's father, George Charles Elliott (1845-1921) and his son JOSEPH ELLIOTT who was my grandfather.

It's great to read about Susan and her family background.  I'm trying very hard to find any background information on JOHN ELLIOTT (1824-1855).  I can't find a link to his parents in South Petherton, Somerset.  Perhaps someone who reads this might be able to advise me further.

Best wishes from Judi Weber
