Hi bananachip,

I would expect SRO will be able to help you. Unfortunately the site appears to be offline so unable to check holdings at the moment.

Hi I have just found some information which says that the children (or step-children) of Robert Mears sometimes used the surname of Green. That might clear up the mystery with Francis. I have been able to confirm this information as being true.  He could of gone by the surname of Green rather than Mears.

That's a pity, it looked like a "Posh" wedding to me.

I will keep it in mind as I haven't looked any further back than Robert.  It could possibly be his sister or cousin.

Hi

My next door neighbours have a friend called Bruce Mears whose family have either lived in the Somerset or Wiltshire areas.

Bruce's dad lives in Exmoor.

Not sure if this is of any help.
