Thanks for your reply! I hadn't heard of the book. Colbourne was part of my mum's family tree. Gertrude married Wallace Colbourne, and they lived in Chew Stoke near Bristol. Gertrude was my mums Aunt, as she was Grandfathers sister. Thanks for your help.

I have just come across your message in which you mention your grandmother Gertrude Colbourne around 1895 near Bath.
In the book 450 years of Colbourne/Colborne, by Brenda A Sherwood nee Colbourne, (ISBN 0 9533213 0 4) it refers to Gertrude May Colbourne, born 1899.
Hope this helps,
