========================================================= The following names are taken from the "Journal of a Somerset Rector 1803/34" by John Skinner, mainly from his own parish of Camerton (nr Bath) and places around. Most people are given only by surname. Skinner was not a very lovable man and the book can be hard going. Oxford Univ. Press paperback 1984. ========================================================= Entries compiled by Mike Foster, Wellington, Nov 1992 Some duplications are possible but where they are not certain duplications I have left them in place. ========================================================= Algar Rev New Church, Frome 350 Alton Miss School mistress 116 Ashbourne Neighbour of Goold 106 Aslip Joseph 1790-1812 73 Bacon Farmer 198 Bacon The Hopyards, Meadyates266 Bailey Coal proprietor 244 Baker Mr Telisford 352 Balne Jacob Constable 77 Balne Joseph 95 Bampfylde Mr Magistrate 270 Barber Mr Prior, Downside College239 Barker Benjamin Landscape artist 249 Barlow Rev Rector of Weston 421 Barlow Dr Bath Hospital 398 Barratt Mr Bath, antiquarian 143 Barter Sub-warden, New Coll 150 Barter Rev W B Rector of Timbury 1783 43 Bassett Sheep stealer 97 Batchelor Rev Babington 300 Batten Master mason 480 Beadon Rev Richard Bath & Wells 241 Beck Dr College Dean 127 Binden Footman 33 Birch Colonel Life Guards 140 Bird Timsbury 295 Biven d of Sarah Somer 279 Boodle Marianne d of Boodle 449 Boodle Georgiana d of Boodle 449 Boodle Edward s of Rev Boodle 109 Boodle Rev Richard Rector of Radstock 90 Bowen Rev Bawdrip 360 Bowler William Collier 29 Bowles Rev Wm Lisle Poet & antiquary 360 Bowles Charles Shaftesbury 258 Bridle William A gaoler 164 Brimble Mrs Tunley 63 Briscoe Gentleman from Bath 336 Britain William Collier, Cridlingcot 38 Britten James Labourer, 1740-1810 58 Buchler Samuel d 1812 79 Buckland Prof Mineralogy, Oxford 150 Bull Collier 185 Bumstead Mr 320 Burfitt Farmer 32 Burge Isaac 95 Burge Neighbour of Dando 54 Burrard Rev George Rector of Yarmouth IOW 88 Bush Mrs Neighbour of Clarke 413 Bush Thomas collier, Methodist 89 Cabel Engineer, the Old Pit 401 Campbell Captain m widow Mrs Gore 254 Carew Mr Crowcombe Court 102 Cassan Rev Stephen Hyde Rector of Mere 287 Challinger 74 Champneys Mr Orchardleigh 162 Clarke Collier (dumb) 412 Clarke Mrs Camerton schoolmistress169 Clarke Schoolmaster 182 Clutterbuck Mr Steward to Gore-Langton141 Colbourne Mrs d 1832 466 Cole Farmer 221 Collings Churchwarden 55 Collings William Overseer 75 Collings William Farmer, Durcot 492 Collins Radford Mill (+p205) 261 Collins A brewer 429 Collins Rev Chas TrelawneyRector of timsbury 368 Collins Mrs Radford 245 Colville Rev Vicar of Chilcompton 358 Combes Rev Dr Wm Henry RC clergyman 107 Combes Inn landlord 202 Conybeare Prof Poetry Prof, Oxford 121 Cook John 249 Cookson Rev Mr Writhlington (+p223) 158 Coombes Dr Wm Henry 239 Coombs George Innkeeper 12 Cottle Charles 309 Cottle Elizabeth Servant 21 Cottle George 119 Cotton Dr Librarian, Bodleian 154 Coward Servant 35 Cranch Mr Antiquary 125 Crang Apothecary 143 Crocker Mr Historian 259 Cromwell Collier 186 Crow Camerton 438 Crow Horse doctor, Radstock 240 Cruse Mr Surveyor 177 Cruttwell Mr Bath, lawyer 123 Curtis Apothecary 405 Curtis Mr Doctor 230 Dalby Fellow of Exeter 153 Dando Charles (died 1821 p166) 39 Dando George 51 Dawson Wick Lane 196 Day Samuel Farmer, Home Farm (187)137 Dennis Prebendary Bath 396 Dilly Mr Butler to Jarretts 169 Doveton Rev Rector of Mells (+p436)304 Edgell Farmer 288 Edwards Rev Curate of Kilmersdon 449 Edwards James Collier 29 Edwards Job Schoolteacher 333 Else Justices' clerk 61 Emery A painter 367 Emery Farmer, Durcot 69 Eyre Related to Skinners 199 Fear Vestryman 137 Feare Mr Coliery bailiff 177 Fenwick Mr Elm 304 Flower Apothecary 74 Fortescue Mr Bath, artist 124 Frapnell Tiler & plasterer 226 Frapnell Meadyates 400 Fry Lawyer, steward 102 Gabell Dr Winchester School 244 Gardener Rev Wellow 254 Gardiner Combe Hay 108 Garratt A.
