Somerset / Re: MY SURNAME INTERESTS
« on: Wednesday 04 August 04 16:31 BST (UK) »
I have just commenced researching Bambury (Ottery St.Mary, Devon - moving to South Wales around 1890) & Hallett (from Winsham, Somerset - moving to South Wales around 1870). There is a marriage link in South Wales.
There appears to be a "Salvation Army" context to the Bamburys and parts of the family went to Australia and Canada - which may be relevant. I understand that there may be family links in Birmingham from the 1930s (through a Vernon Bambury).
Other names that feature are MOSS, HOLE, TROBLE and PELIFANT (in various spellings) - all from Devon / Somerset.
I hope that I have provided sufficient for youto identify a connection. If this does link in with your findings, I can provide names, places and dates ---- but not on the chat room.
good hunting
