Oh that's a great help, thanks Roger. In a Suffolk accent I'm sure that could sound like Golson and as their first child Hannah was baptised in October the following year, it does look likely.

Happy New Year everyone (from China) I have been using an older version of Family Tree Maker for many years. I have version 6.0. SuddenlyI am unable to open my files! I have a message which reads: "The file you are trying to load is from a NEWER version of Family Tree Maker and cannot be loaded." Has anyone else experienced this? It is patently impossible that the files were created with a newer version of FTM since I don't own a newer version! I suspect that, internet conspiracy theorist that I am, my files might have been "adjusted" by the software maker in order to encourage (force?) me into buying an updated version. Unfortunately I am in China and, to the best of my ability to find such a thing, I cannot download FTM from the internet. Having software delivered to China is next to impossible too. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. David C Kindred

I am interested in Charles SMITH who was born in Yoxford about 1830 and married Sarah (surname unknown). The their six children were all born in Yoxford (Between 1852 and 1870), so Charles and Sarah likely married their about 1850.

Time off work has provided the opportunity to identify a few gaps - for which I would appreciate any help: I am looking for a baptism for Elizabeth HOUGHTON (spelling varies) about 1792. She is the daughter of John and Mary. Census suggests either Corton or Oulton, both Suffolk. Like many others, I do not often post to the lists, but always read them and am very much appreciative of the help I have received so far. The availability of the Norfolk registers on Familysearch (which includes a few for Suffolk) is great for people like me who do not live within easy reach of East Anglia - but unless you know which parish it is still a long job trawling through. Many thanks and a happy new year to all contributors. Enid (Rispin)
