Yes indeed Sylvia the very clear one does say Uxbridge- but that's not the one he can't read  ;D

It's the one two above that between both the Birmingham Warwickshire ones  ;D

That's what it says but the place in Somerset is Axbridge. :)
Today I broke my personal record for most consecutive days alive.

Thank you everyone for all your efforts.  I'm leaning towards East Harptree especially as this is in the right area of Somerset, not that far from Axbridge.  I have been reading lists of Somerset place names in a broad mummerset accent all morning!  I don't have a marriage date for John Evans and Mary, but I think (hope) she may have been Parsons.
