    3. Well Aldborough in North Norfolk may be worth a look if there is not a Henry Sillett baptism in the villages near Brooke. However there is a cluster of them around Topcroft, Alburgh. the Pulhams etc I am sure Jean would agree that the village given as place of birth on the census is not always the same as place of baptism. I couldnt find a marriage for them in Norfolk- bear in mind that the Suffolk border is close. As he and Margaret are on the 1871 as Sillott -giving his place of birth as Albrige then you might consider Attleborough which is South Norfolk or Attlebridge which is near Norwich. I suspect a rag collector is going to have a pretty broad accent so Attleborough is possible. Rosie.
