Goals

  • Determine the “genetic profile” for this branch of COOMBS.
  • Identify related COOMBES branches to establish the “lineage genetic profile” of this branch of COOMBES and trace it further back.
  • Specifically link Gen 7 John COOMBES to his ancestry. Examine a probable connection to the COMBES of Otterford and the Crewkerne Farm where John lived.
  • Note: Well documented thru Gen 6. Gen 7 needs verification. Sons of Gen 7 John COOMBES and Edith (documented by baptism records at Crewkerne and Chillington, a nearby village) are: Thomas 1779, Henry 1781, John 1775, Robert 1775, William 1777. There is very probably a conection to the Combes of Otterford to this farm.
