Hi All Does anyone know if the PR's of Broxted have survived prior to 1694 as shown on SEAX please? Eve

Stephanie, I would be interested to learn of your COBB ancestry but f you could give a date of birth for your Joseph COBB ancestor it would help - or some other details. I have no Joseph COBB on my tree but one of my ancestors is John COBB born and baptised in Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk in September 1754. He married an Ann someone. His father was also a John COBB possibly born in Suffolk abt. 1730 who possibly married an Elizabeth Clark in 1751. I have this COBB family down through several generations to Betsy COBB born in Hinton, Suffolk, in 1843 and who died in Edmonton in the London area. She was my paternal gr.grandmother.

Hello, all: I'm a Yankee (actually more like a Valley girl as I'm from California :-) who has spent the past several years trying to discover the English origins of my immigrant ancestor, Joseph COBB. The last record I find of him is in London, but I believe he was from the East of England: Essex, Suffolk, or Norfolk. The project has morphed somewhat into a name study, so I have registered the name with the Guild of One Name Studies: http://www.one-name.org/profiles/cobb.html It has been really fascinating to learn more about British history and geography! Best regards, Stephanie

Thanks you to everyone who got in touch, I will keep searching and with all your contributions I hope to solve my long standing brick wall. The favorite name was BRINER or BRIMER, these are the names I had been working on so I am confident now I am on the right path. Thanks all for casting your eyes over the record for me, a second opinion is always helpful. I will keep on looking and searching different avenues to see if something comes up so I'm sure I will be back with another puzzle for you to solve. Happy hunting all and thanks again everyone.

I am trying to find a marriage of Jane Ann THORN (b. 1851) & Richard MOURTON (b.1850) Whilst this is not an Essex area, sometimes our ancestors creep into other districts and marry. After a long and tedious trek I am getting desperate! Richard MOURTON born West London to Charles & Susannah MOURTON. I have Richard in the census of 1851 & 1871. I might have him in 1861 but can’t confirm. I also have him in later census. He dies in 1899. Richard & Jane have their first child in 1877 (Sophia aka Sofia) and others follow,. This name is mostly MOURTON but it sometimes appears as MORETON & MORTON. Any suggestions? I have tried all sorts of computations from the free BMD list and nothing appears on Ancestry parish index. They could have married between 1871 (Richard is living with his brother on this census and is unmarried) & the birth of their first born in 1877. However, as I can’t find them they might have not married at all! Do you have any MOURTON or THORN’s in your tree? Thanks, Shirley in Florida

I was told the same story and also that a lot of churches in Essex were bombed during WW2 so some records were lost.
