If anyone is interested in this branch of the family, please send me your email address and I will be happy to forward my information to you.

Targett Family" you'll get more information.
My Henry
Targett was the son of Stephen and Louisa
Targett. He married my great great aunt, Mary Ann
Pittard, in Evercreech,
Somerset, in 1867.
Henry's father was Stephen born 1819 in Evercreech,
Somerset.
Stephen's father was James born 1773 in Evercreech.
James' father was Samuel born 1731 in Evercreech.
Samuel's father also was named Samuel and born in 1695 in
Staunton,
Wiltshire.
Samuel's father was Christopher born 1670 in
Staunton,
Wiltshire.
Christopher's father also was Christopher born 1642 in
Horsington,
Somerset.
And "Sibball" was born 1620 in
Somerset.
I know one Stephen
Targett was a convict and sent to Australia and his son, James?, was also a convict and sent to Tasmania. However, pleased to say this was not my Stephen (although I do have one felon in the family already)
Valerie
My Henry and Mary Ann went to Canada and after Henry died I found Mary Ann and her son William in
Los Angeles.
