Thomas ands Caroline SCUDMORE
« on: Wednesday 10 April 13 13:41 BST (UK) »
Hello, I am trying to trace Thomas Scudamore born 1787 d 1874 from Swainswick Bath.  I think his wife was called Martha.  It is believed he had a daughter called Caroline and she married James Collins from Twerton and had many children.  I cannot seem to find her on any census apart from 1841 in Gay Street Bath.  I cannot find a connection to thomas.   also would like to know when she died.
Many Thanks
Sarah

Here is her marriage (I think!):

March qtr 1849
Bath district    vol 11, page 29

Scudamore, Caroline
+ and on the same page +
Collins, James


Confirmed on BathBMD.org.uk
1849 at St Mary, Swainswick
Caroline Scudamore to James Collins


On the 1841 census, it looks like Caroline is at school?
There is a schoolmistress and a teacher, and a number of children.

You said you could not find a connection to Thomas - Familysearch has a christening on a Caroline, daughter of Thomas & Martha in Swainswick on 16 Sept 1821

Link is https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/N182-SHW  ((but not working at present)

Also not sure the death mentioned previously is your James, as there's a James Collins, Miller, b Twerton c 1826 in Newton St Loe on 1871, and Lyncombe in 81 & 91. He is a widower with children

Ada b c1851
John b c1852
Nora b c1853
Edwin b c1854
Blanch b c1857
Caroline b c1858

On 1871, Ada & Ccaroline are with their grandfather Thomas Scudamore
