Robert Tapscott and his wife Elizabeth moved to Somerset in the early 1800's - initially to Isle Brewers and then, around 1820, to High Ham / Henley. Thereafter many of their children (they had ten) married into other local families, so our family tree includes many of the surnames still found around the area today, including Dinham, Lavis, and Groves. Robert and Elizabeth, together with many of their children (and descendants of the children) are buried in the churchyard.
One though, moved to Australia in 1849 and there are now a large scattering of Tapscott's in that country. Shortly after he moved, a number of others moved from the High Ham area (including some from the Groves and Lavis families) and settled in the same area of Australia, with the result that there were a number of marriages between these families.
