Robin Elms is interested in information on the Elms and Humpheris families of Kington St Michael. In 1882 George Elms and Caroline Humpheris married at the Kington Parish Church. They subsequently had at least one son Henry John Thomas Elms. The 1881 census shows there were a lot of Elms families in the area and that they may be related to John Elms who was George's father. George's mother may have been Selena and he may have had many brothers and sisters, some of the names that crop up are Frank, Eliza, Sarah and Kate Elms.
