Janet10 on 2013-01-22 20:47:17Hi - I notice that you have a few West Country names there - ie: Bassett and Wright, Vickory. I have Bassetts in my tree ( Squire Bassett gambled his tin mine and country house away. The rest were miners etc in Cornwall. I have the name Wright in 2 families. My cousin 2 x removed is still alive in Truro and we see them. Can I help in any way? Are you using Ancestry.com? Janet (janet.hammond1@gmail.com)
ALV on 2013-01-28 17:32:59Hi Janet 10
The Bassett connections are two families: one from Kent that emigrated in the 17th century to Massachusetts and the other is from Staffordshire.
The Wright family were from Lincolnshire.
The Vickery (Vicary and other spellings) are two families but maybe two branches of the same family. They are definitely West Country. One Vickery family was from the North Molton area of Devon and moved to Wales circa 1840s. The other was from the Seavington St Michael and Lopen area of Somerset. Mary Ann Vickery (1851-1884) married Walter Scott (1851-1890) were my great great-grandparents. Their son Charles Vickery Scott (1874-1944) moved to Wales.
Other West Country names n my family history are Phelps, tapp, Templeman, Denman, Harris & Hutchings.
Thanks for asking :)

You are sure??
You have checked all available census returns?
I only ask becuase I thought I had two sisters married to the same man.
Eventually after a close study of the census I discovered they had married cousins of the same name!
Good hunting...............
ALV on 2013-02-03 23:11:38Yes I have checked it out thoroughly and Edward Lewis SMITH definitely married as described above to the two LAMBERT sisters.
