Maureen, Just off hand without checking up to date content on FS, the registers of parishes roughly west of the River GT Ouse but in Norfolk, don't seem to be on the site. I expect it is something to do with them being in the Ely diocese. It is a bit hit and miss- I dare say there is some logic to it but some Norfolk parishes such as Southery also in the Ely diocese are on the site. It is a bit annoying ! http://www.ely.anglican.org/about/structured/deaneries/parishes.html Rosie On 29/10/2011 23:38, Maureen Tokely wrote: > Hi RosemaryI have just been looking at that site for Inez but Wiggenhall St Mary Magdalen doesn't appear to be there online.Am I looking in the correct place?The film of WSMM which include marriages can be ordered from LDS to view at the LDS Library.Maureen in Oz> Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2011 17:17:19 -0500 >> From: rjones5622@gmail.com >> To: norfolk@rootsweb.com >> Subject: Re: [NFK] Sarah Everson and Thomas Neve >> >> You can go to FamilySearch and browse the Norfolk images.

Hi All, I am looking for information on my following Ancestors Sara Everson born ABT 1813 in Norfolk, Thomas was born ABT 1816 also in Norfolk they appear as Eaves on the 1851 and Eves on the 1841. According to Thomas Neve death Cert: his Father was James Neve I am trying to find their marriage. According to Sarah death Cert: her Father is John Everson and Mother Mary Stolam helping someone can help me with these two people They arrived in South Australia in 1853 Regards Inez Melbourne Australia

Hello, listers I cannot find the baptismal record for my 4 x great grandfather, John TITE. According to the 1851 Census for Postwick, John TITE gives his birthplace as Hemblington. Birthdate: about 1791. I looked through the FamilySearch.org registers for Hemblington--both the parish registers and the Archdeacon registers--but could not find him. I found who I believe to be his siblings in the Hemblington parish register: Sarah TITE 1783 - "Sarah, daughter of John & Mary TIGHT. 4th March" Elizabeth TITE 1786 - "Elizabeth, daughter of John TIGHT and Mary, his wife, late GOTT, spinster, was born 27th January 1786. Baptized .... 4th February 1786. Received into the...14 1795." Any help finding the elusive John TITE would be greatly appreciated. Ros

Hi, I see Thomas Eaves in the 1851 census for Magdalen , he is 42 possibly although he is transcribed as 40 so b c 1811 or 1809 and he is an ag lab born Runcton. Sarah is 38 so b c 1813 , she is born Magdalen and they have Mary A , 9 , b Magdalen and John , 5, and William , 2 months . Freebmd has two births of William Eaves in March 1/4 1851 in the Downham reg district, and a John in 1848 in the Wisbeach reg district , but I cannot match a Mary Ann c 1842 or a marriage between an Eaves/Eves/Neve and Everson between Sept 1837 and 1843 . life is hard . soften it with a cat \\\=^..^=/// ----- Original Message ----- From: "Inez" <inezmayall@optusnet.com.au> To: <norfolk@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, October 29, 2011 6:48 AM Subject: [NFK] Sarah Everson and Thomas Neve > Hi All, > I am looking for information on my following Ancestors > Sara Everson born ABT 1813 in Norfolk, Thomas was born ABT 1816 also in > Norfolk they appear as Eaves on the 1851 and Eves on the 1841.

Re-reading these posts and following the links reminded me that when, as a child in the early fifties I travelled out of London to stay with my Uncle in Orpington There was a huge gun on a railway truck just outside the mainline station. When it was removed I know not but I never saw it again. That would have been 1953 on my way to stay to watch the Coronation on something called a television.

Hi all, I've been trying to find the baptism of my 3g grandfather, Francis TAYLOR. He married Mary DEWING on 25 Apr 1782 in East Raynham by licence. Both were "of this parish". He was buried in East Raynham on 19 Nov 1814. His age was recorded as either 68 or 60, making a birth date either 1746 or 1754. He was apprenticed to Charles Pettifer, West Rainham, blacksmith, on 14 Feb 1767 - which makes a birth ca 1754 likely as I believe boys were usually aged 13 at the time of their becoming apprentices. He was not baptised in East Raynham. There was an Overing Taylor buried there on 16 Mar 1774 and Elizabeth Taylor of West Raynham on 13 Oct 1791, aged 75 - possibly related? In looking for baptisms in nearby parishes that might fit, I found a William and Frances Taylor, also a William and Alice Taylor (possibly a second marriage) having children in the 1750s in Weasenham. One that caught my eye was for a Frances TAYLOR in 1754, parents William and Frances. Only problem is she's female! I've checked the entry and it does say "daughter" - could the minister have been wrong?? Other children were named Alice and James. Along with William and Francis, they all appear in the next generations of my Taylors. Am I clutching at straws? Where else can I look? Is 1754 too early for most baptisms to have been recorded? Any feedback greatly appreciated. Regards Jan

Hi Jill Thank you for letting me know about Gagen and its location in Norfolk Karen

Thank you for the web link Stan Karen

Hi Rosie I haven' found a connection between the family headed by John Gager [married Elizabeth Garnet 1762] at Downham Market and Richard at King Lynn. They married and had families around the same time so maybe Brothers. I don't know the origins of the name. I don't know when and where Richard was born or his occupation. But the name Gager does appear in London records which made me wonder if he came from there to King Lynn. Karen

A broad sweep on assorted sites found the name in Norwich and also a cluster in Sudbury in Suffolk and in parts of Essex. The surname profiler has a density in Essex but 1881 is a bit late and may be misleading. Apart from Norwich I wouldnt begin to know if there is an obvious connection between Lynn and the other places. I suppose the registration would be easy to fall in the cracks of gaps in PRs in places adjoining Downham. I see there is an early 1700s birth for a Gager at Outwell, so perhaps the villages out that way are worth a try in the actual images . I can appreciate your frustration.

Mark With regard to these armed trains I understand that there are some details in: Norfolk and Suffolk in The Great War: Gerald Gliddon - pp 8 - 10 and that the reference book for this is The Armoured Train: Its Development and Usage G.Balfour London 1981 Hope this helps Peter Batchelor > Hi Norfolkies - > > A history oriented question for which I hope to get some direction > from the mailing list. > > I found a throw away reference to the War Office having > commissioned armed trains along the Norfolk coast in 1914.

Karen - in Free Reg there is a marriage of a Richard GAGER in Tilney St Lawrence to a Ann NELSON (widow) in 1764. It wouldn't be the first time an Ann has also been a Susannah.... You can check the entry - the records are available on the LDS site (the ATs image 59) Happy hunting! Elizabeth Pugh Yukon Canada >I am still looking for the marriage of Richard Gager and Susanna >[surname unknown] taking place between 1765-1768.

I am still looking for the marriage of Richard Gager and Susanna [surname unknown] taking place between 1765-1768. I would like to learn more about the area, where people travel to, from King Lynn and those coming to the area where they most likely arrived from. Richard was living in King Lynn [1764-65 & 1768-1779] which I know was a major sea port. I am interested in hearing about any transport route in the 1760's ship, canals, roads that people may have travel regularly on to /from King Lynn area for employment or family. Karen

Karen - the name Gagen rather than Gager is/was common in parts of West Norfolk. Perhaps easy to have transcribed lower case "n" as "r" or vice-versa?
