Hallo Ellen,
Your Thomas Coke Kear who married Harriett Pickford is the son of William Kear and Elizabeth (nee Beddis). This William had a brother Richard who is my husbands great great grandfather so that makes us distant relatives.

If you have not got back very far with your tree in England, I can fill in all the gaps you need. Just email me. I am an Archives assistant at the Glos Record Office and have been doing Kear family history for many, many years and have most of the Kear lines back to around 1500.

Regards,
Averil
