In the 1841 census nearly all the Colcombe's are in Weobley, Hfds.

Don't know if its' of help, but there was a Colcombe family at Kingstone in 1960's.  That's near Abbeydore.  The son married a widow of the local shopkeeper (Mrs Climo) in the 1970's.

Hi, I'm decended from a Colcomb family in Hereford. They were blacksmiths there.  A while later they moved to the Rhondda/Aberdare area and worked in engineering to do with mining there.  My great-great grandfather then lived in Wiltshire and worked for GWR as did my grandfather.

Hi Glen,

We must be related as I'm sure my gang lived at Mountain Ash for a bit too (I haven't done any research for a year or three so I'm running on memory power here!)  It was after they moved away from Hereford but were still working as blacksmiths.  Shortly after though I think they moved over to the mining side of things, probably fixing the coal trucks etc .  Any engineers or something like in your branch?

Cheers
Helen

Hi helen,

Thanks for the reply, nice to hear from you. What era are you focusing on hear as the engineering side of things isn't ringing a bell, but the mining is, my grandfather ( david colcombe who was married to my nan, agnes colcombe ), was in the war first, but then moved into mining. I have,nt done any research really into the family history, but i have to say after coming across this site and forum, i'm thinking of going for it so maybe we could help each other out in tracing our roots.

Hope this helps.

Regards.

Glen.
