Thanks Chris.

I guess he was just staying with them. I haven't found any connection to a Mills family yet.

All the best

I don't see Edward 1854 in any later censuses - nor John / Edward / Mary Ann in any year.

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

(Birth reference for 1854 one I posted Yvonne, the Edward Thomas Bath, Death 1856. Baptism and Burial on below. Always worth a check for Somerset)
