Tilley s

[Cariad fach]

Hello All,

My great Grandfather was a Frederick TIlley who married a Rachael Hynam...they had a daughter named Eliza MAry (Polly) Tilley JAckson...who married a Samuel JAckson and lived in Caerphilly.  I think that Frederick Tilley and Rachael Hynam were from the Sommerset area....but I have hit a brick wall and cannot trace any further back than that....I would love more info on either Frederick Tilley or Rachel Hynam....

Frederick  was born at Commerton- nr Bath Sommerset.  Rachael Hynam was born at Bishop Sutton- nr Pensford Sommerset.  They were married at Bedminster Old Church - Bristol. Eliza was born MAy 16th 1870 and died October 1st 1923.)

These names and places were in my grandmother's old bible...but I have not found any matches on searches or places where I could request records....
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated,
Jessica
