Hi Phillip
Yes I have come across Edward Somers b 1853 although I have not managed to link him into my line of Somers.I had to look at them all to untangle mine from the rest.This would have to be checked but I have Edward down as the son of Thomas Somers b Ireland 1826 and Judith born in Lancaster.Thomas and Judith had about 9 children.Sorry I don't know about the name change.
My Somers came from the Wells area of Somerset.Some of them went to Ireland in the 1830s although my ggg grandfather went to Bradford rather later in the 1860s.
Let me know if you find out any more about the Irish connection.
Regards
Mandy
