There are two families here from different branches of the family.  The first of Robert & Harriet is only a tentative line to the Appledore side of the family, I don't have a positive link.  The second of William & Tamsilia is definitely of my line as William is my 4xgreat Uncle, unfortunately the line seems to have died out with the death of William John, the Sub-Postmaster in 1906.  A lot of the family on both lines are buried in Westleigh Cemetery.
