Hello Mavis, Redenhall is close to my Mendham/Fressingfield Fishers, but George James was born 150 years after my Sarah Fisher. Woolpit is at the other end of the county, so my question would be whether the move from Woolpit to Redenhall was a return to George Fisher's roots or not. I had a quick look on Ancestry - it looks like George's parents were Robert and Louisa also born Woolpit.

Hi Nicole I have around 70 FISHERs in my "possibly related" list. I can't claim that they are all related but in my case those that are come predominantly from Essex, just on the south side of the river Stour - the river that divides Suffolk from Essex. My ggf moved from Essex to Suffolk (where I am) in about 1860 following the spread of the railway network into Suffolk from Essex. I can get my FISHER tree back to 1750, but with many having large families, who knows where some of them migrated to. If you look at http://www.nationaltrustnames.org.uk/Surnames.aspx you will see that in 1998 there were around 46,000 of them in the UK, with Norfolk, the north east and north west of England particularly strong. But none of mine appear to have origins in Suffolk. But if any of yours have an Essex connection, the possibilities are endless.

Thank you Brian. I have contacted the Record Office at Bury St Edmunds and will book a fiche reader and roll film reader nearer the time. One side of my family - the CLOVER family owned DRINKSTONE WINDMILL. I know a couple called HAYWARD renovated it but then moved to Scotland.

Hi Heather Yes, William and Elizabeth are listed as widower and widow, they both signed the register, like their witness, Jonathan Crooks, but Mary Bruce made her mark.
