007 - James Bond proof
It was great to find James Bond lurking at the wedding of my ancestor Miriam in 1777. Was he there to ensure no foul play, or zip the bridegroom if he got his words wrong. I felt sure he was Miriam's protective brother, but no baptism could I find either at Ditcheat or neighbouring Ansford. I did find that four of his children left wills, and the entire wonderful Guppy clan of Bath were his descendants, not to mention half of Parramatta NSW. To my shame it took more thorough combing by familysearch transcribers to locate his baptism, on 10 May 1755 at Ditcheat. Great work but how did I miss it?!
