I have viewed the High Littleton parish site a few times and also the Ancestry with all the listings of the Challenger families. All very interesting, time passes quickly.

I have all the children of the marriage of Thomas and Jane Tucker nee Challenger and also have Janes parents and grandparents.

Tucker is my paternal line and I have nothing further back than gt gt gt Grandfather Thomas b 1762 Midsomer Norton and died 1817 Clutton.

I have just spoken to a cousin who tells me he thinks that Thomas' parents were a William Tucker born c1720 who married an Elizabethb1724 (no maiden name known).

All news to me up until 2 minutes ago? What can you do with this please?

The marriage of Thomas and Hannah could fit with date of son Thomas' birth. The Frome name is new to me as previous Tucker ancestors have been living in Midsomer Norton, and Clutton. I will have a look at the High Littleton link, I am sure I will learn from it.

Many thanks for your input.

m.p.griffiths, Yes you are right, Thomas Tucker b1762 is on a previous thread a few years ago now, but I still haven't managed to trace the parents for Thomas. Many thanks for your reply.
