309 Charles Shearn born 30 October 1794 and baptised 25 February 1795 St John the Baptist, Midsomer Norton the son of Charles Shearn and Susannah Vokes
Charles Shearn married Mary Pode 7 February 1818 St Michael, Bath. Witnesses C Russell and Robert Orchard.

Charles and Mary, their daughter Mary Elizabeth and their son John emigrated to Texas around 1834

There is strong evidence that Charles Shearn b. 1794, his wife and two kids were on one of these two ships that sailed from Liverpool to New Orleans filled with Irish Colonists in 1834. the ships were named the Prudence and the Heroine

London Gazette. Charles Shearn filed for bankruptcy twice: first in 1826, as a confectioner, and again in 1832 as a soap manufacturer. He may have been staring at debtors prison. either way, things weren't go so well at Camp Shearn. Immigration to TX making sense.

Charles Shearn was experiencing difficult times in 1834. His business in Bath had failed, leaving him in dire straights with a young wife and three children. So, he responded to an advertisement in a Bristol newspaper, seeking young Irish, Catholic men to come to rural Texas. (Troubled by an increasing Protestant population of Texans, Mexico's President Gen. Santa Ana retained envoy's around the world to recruit Roman Catholics to come to Texas to increase his base, and keep these rabble-rousers at bay. They would be given a large tract of land if they vowed their allegiance to Mexico's Santa Anna and the Roman Catholic Church. This particular envoy was short of his quota of 100 recruits, so he advertised in a Bristol newspaper. Charles, a devout Methodist from Somerset, decided it was in his best interest to be Irish and Catholic. He boarded a ship with his wife and 8-year-old son, John, and sailed to the the U.S., leaving two of his children behind.

It didn't take long for his allegiance to Santa Ana to wane, however, as he found himself fraternizing with Texas rebels. He enlisted in Col. Dimmit's regiment, and was a signer of the Goliad Declaration of Independence, which preceded the Texas declaration. On March 27, 1836, he found himself tied up by his hands behind his back, being prepared for execution by the Mexicans in what would become known as the Goliad Massacre. His son John clung to his leg and attracted the attention of Mexican General Urribe, who upon discovering the boy and his father were English, set them free, two of the few survivors of the massacre.

After, supporting the Texas Revolution, Charles went on to become a prominent founding pioneer of Houston, who established the first Methodist Church in Houston and became the first county judge there.

311 Charles William Padfield of the Congo Balolo Mission, Ikau, Belgian Congo died 14 October 1921 at the age of 46 on SS Ambleve on the River Congo giving probate to Norah Eliza Padfield his widow.

He taught at a missionary school. There is a book about him called Charles Padfield: A Life Spent for God and Congo-Land.

Charles Padfield was a Congo Balolo Mission missionary who gave evidence to the Congo Commission of Enquiry into the atrocities committed towards Congolese workers by white rubber plantation bosses and their sentries.

The Commission was a body that King Leopold II, King of the Belgians and owner of the Congo Free State Territories, had been forced to establish in 1905 to investigate the cruelty against native Congolese rubber workers.

Padfield was accepted for the Congo Balolo Mission in 1903 and died of rheumatic fever in 1921.

314 CHERYL Anne Strawbridge, eldest daughter of former Chilcompton butcher and historian David Strawbridge and his wife Audrey, has died at the age of 50.

Cherry, as she was always known to everyone, was born and brought up in Chilcompton with her two sisters and brother, attending the village infant and junior schools, moving on to Fosseway School and later spending many happy years at Hilltop Training Centre, Writhlington and Frome Enterprise Centre.

Cherry had many health problems throughout her life, having been born with a cleft palate and living with a hole in her heart until she had surgery at the age of 46.

Despite her difficulties, she took every opportunity to fulfil her potential, joining her siblings for ballet classes, old time dancing, Brownies and Guides. She was a member of Midsomer Norton Gateway Club for 20 years, where she had many friends. She also travelled with her family to New Zealand, Disneyland Paris and Lourdes, as well as on several cruises

In 1995, when she was 37, Cherry left the family home and went to live in sheltered accommodation at Frome, and last July she moved into her own flat at Shepton Mallet with the support of a carer.

As a child, Cherry sang in the choir at St John's Church, Chilcompton, where her funeral was held before a large congregation of friends and family. Her brother and sister, Dominic and Lauren, spoke of her mischievous childhood and her escapades, of her love of animals and music, of her riding lessons and her capacity to remember all the words of her favourite songs. She would sing at parties and take a turn at karaoke.

Her sister Bryony and family, living in New Zealand and unable to attend the funeral, sent their memories, which included a visit to Bristol Hippodrome to see Pam Ayres and Cherry's delight in meeting her backstage. Also recalled was Cherry's tendency to say what she meant, such as telling visitors when it was time to go.

Cherry had chosen the hymns and reading for the funeral service and her favourite song, Country Roads, was played.

A much-loved daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, niece and friend, Cherry will be very much missed.

Deceased was assisting other to send away a train of five loaded tubs from the passbye at a junction. He told the incline-rider to give the signal to start and he would put on the drag. When the train had left the junction and ascended the incline about 10 yards the couple between the first and second tubs became detached. The drag failed to hold the four tubs, which ran back and jumped the rails at the curve of the junction Deceased was pinned between the tubs and a bar leg the coupler was of the D type, and the jaw of the D was strained. It is probable that owing to the strained jaw the pin had not been properly inserted.

Inquest of Mark Lasbury 1850

Taken before George Sylvester, Esq, at Bradford, on Mark Lasbury, aged 9.

The deceased accompanied William Allard from Bradford Leigh to Devizes Green Fair, on Saturday morning, as drovers.

On their return, they entered the New Inn, at Seend, on the Devizes Road, where two men, unknown to Allard or the deceased, gave the latter a considerable quantity of beer, so as to intoxicate him.

On leaving the New Inn & proceeding a short way, he fell down and being assisted by Allard proceeded to Woolley, and was desired to go home to Bradford.

In the course of the evening, the deceased called twice at George Kempton's at Woolley to inquire his way home, and was informed, but was found on Sunday morning by Kempton near his house, lying on the ground quite insensible.

He was taken into a house, and died two hours after.

The surgeon was of the opinion that death had been produced by exhaustion, exposure and intemperance.

Verdict accordingly.
