Hi Connie,

Your W A SALMON appears in the book 'The Salmon Chronicles' this was a privately published book which appeared about 1948, only 100
copies were
printed I believe, your local library may be able to get hold of one for you. From memory the author was Herbert J SALMON he went
round the country extracting all references of the Salmon name he could find, I have the section on Somerset.

At the end of the chapter about Somerset Salmons is an extensive family tree starting with Thomas SALMON Mayor of Wells 1647 your
William features along with his parents George and Mary Ann SALMON (FRITH).

In brief according to the book he married Harriet FENNELL at St Sepulchres, London on April 29th 1845 and again according to the
book he died February 26 1854 although you say he moved to Nova Scotia in 1855, obviously there are errors but I have found it a
useful guide.

If you have any problems getting hold of a copy then let me know I might be able to help further.

I have a W. A. Salmon baptized 1`3 Aug 1824 St. Cuthbert's, Wells, Somerset,
England. He married Harriett, surname not known. He was the son of George
Salmon and Mary Ann Frith. He was a medical doctor and moved to Nova Scotia
about 1855.

Probably no connection but thought I would post that information anyway.
