Hi Gay, Not born in 1760, but married then. This suggests she could be a sister or cousin of your John. We both need to get back another generation (at least) to find out. I don't know how common the name Barker is in Norfolk. If it is very common there could be Johns and Elizabeths all over the place with no way to tell which is ours!
