the family name "Shougat" - what might it really be
published by Helenh49 - 5 years 2 days ago.

Hi Jenny

Thanks for your reply. The name certainly does have a German feel to it. Are there German names around Cheddar?  Her given name was Hannah, common both in English and German, so no help.  No occupation.  I'll have a hunt to see if I can find any Schugards in the area at that time.

(South Australia where I grew up was settled by a mix of German and English speakers so I'm well used to the corruption of German names by English speaking officials!)

Hi Helen

Is there any suggestion that Mr SHOUGAT might be from Europe - specifically Germany?  There is a a German surname SCHUGARD (D is pronounced like T in German) and SHOUGAT could be the anglicised form...

What was Mr SCHUGARD's occupation?

Thank you Ann, that is sad news.  I'm afraid several of those whose accounts are in that document are no longer with us - We are glad that their memories live on.

Sadly Marlene Board passed away last Tuesday. Not through the virus I must add.
