Hello everyone, Thought I might post my POTTER interests, just in case anyone is on the same line. All the POTTERS were prolific and had large numbers of children. My first POTTER is Jonathan. He was born in Norfolk about 1772. He married Sarah TENCH, OF Heigham, Norwich, daughter of William TENCH & Elizabeth FREEMAN. They had at least 11 children including George POTTER b 21 July 1805. George POTTER m Sarah WILLIAMS at St Peter Mancroft Church Norwich on 28 April 1828. They had at least 14 children including Richard Robert POTTER b February 1851. Richard Robert POTTER m Mary Elizabeth READ b 1861 Enfield, Middlesex, date unknown. Their children included Hilda May POTTER, my grandmother. I have pages of POTTERS, far too many to mention here. Many have involvement with the church of St Peter Mancroft - Sexton, stonemason etc. So if you think you are "Pottering about" in the same area, I'll be delighted to hear from you. Kind regards, Lynda Smith, Bedfordshire, England. .
Hello Linda and POTTER List, I have not done extensive research on my Potter line in the UK and only have my ancestor of Edwin Walter POTTER born Feb 16, 1821 and whos father was listed as James POTTER. My Edwin Potter was married three times that I know of to a (1) Sarah Unknown (2) Barbara Unknown (3) Harriet Jane Blandy b. Mar 11, 1833. I show locations listed for the group as Hutfordshire, Kensington Oval, Peckham and West Brixton. I have not identified where exactly these locations are. Mr. Edwin POTTER had at least 16 children that I'm aware of as my direct ancestor was with the third wife and she died 9 months after giving birth to my ancestor. Mr. POTTER may well have gone on to marry again after her passing. If anyone would like the names of these sixteen children, I would be glad to share what I have but am hesitant to list here at this time. I would be welcome any communication regarding this POTTER line.
