Folks, Every week or so (or whenever the digest gets to about 20 KB), I'm forwarding to the List those posts that have been "gatewayed" from RootsWeb's SUFFOLK Board that might contain information of interest to List subscribers, and here's the current "digest" of such gatewayed posts. If you wish to respond to any of these gatewayed posts, please do so by clicking on the relevant "Message Board URL:" link and NOT by responding either to the list OR to my address as the digest poster. Board posters will not see your List response unless they are also subscribed to the List, and most are not. PLEASE also be careful about responding to any post and inadvertently re-posting the ENTIRE digest to the list! More information on RootsWeb's Boards can be found at: http://boards.RootsWeb.com/boardfaq.aspx#undefined , and the Board "home page" is at: http://boards.rootsweb.com/?o_iid=33216&o_lid=33216 .

Thanks, Peter SUFFOLK List Admin. -------------------------------------------------- Re: DANSEY / DANSIE Family Research This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: petertrill Surnames: DANCIE Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.england.sfk.general/90.3.1.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Our family friend Mollie Parsons DANCIE has recently deceased aged 86. I have access to some details of her parents and grandparents. Mollie's father Charles Edgar DANCIE was an inventor of the "Up n Over Garage door" and ran a steel works business in Brighton, Sussex, England. Mollie appears to be descended from Nicholas DANCIE of Laverham. I am interested in any other information. I do not have an ancestry account. -------------------------------------------------- Re: DANSEY / DANSIE Family Research This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

The grave is of Sarah EVANS, who died on 16th October 1843. Apparently the memorial stands to the west side of the churchyard, if this of any assistance. I would be most grateful to anyone who can help; many thanks in anticipation. -------------------------------------------------- Re: parish records lookups This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

Author: brumfan Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.england.sfk.general/8609.4.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hi Chris I have the wrong family linked to your Thomas Coleman However according to the Debenham website if the date of birth you quote is correct then Mary Ann Debenham born 16/11/1796 parents Robert Debenham and Elizabeth Bigsby Depden area, although some of their children were born in Poslingford. However then it all goes pear shaped as I have Mary Debenham parents above marrying Alexander Shirer and having a family with him? If it is this family then they are my 3rd cousin 5 times removed. So are you sure about the correct Mary and the date of birth? I have Suffolk: Sudbury - Marriage Licences, 1815-1839 12.The Hearth Tax. Charles 2nd. Allegations for Marriage Licences in the Archdeaconry of Sudbury, Suffolk. Book 36. 1815-16-17. County: Suffolk Country: England Thos. Coleman, of Poslingford, s. m., & Mary Ann Debenham, of Depdon,s. w., at same. 21 Oct 1816. no sign of widower? So no further forward at the present. I will continuw checking records for you Bye Tracey -------------------------------------------------- Re: parish records lookups This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

It says Marriages in the parish of Depden in the county of Suffolk in the year 1816. Thomas Coleman bachelor the bachelor is crossed out and widower written. To Mary Ann Debenham spinster of this parish. Then it says in the parish of Poslingford in the County of Suffolk. Were married in this church by ( I can not read the name) of this Twenty Second Day of October in the year one thousand eight hundred and sixteen. This marriage was solemnized between us signed Thos Coleman and Mary Ann Debenham in the presence of Anna Debenham and Rob Debenham. The Suffolk record Office photocopied this for me plus the birth and death registers. I would be happy to send you copies. Then theDepden baptism register said that Mary Ann Debenham was baptize on the 16th November 1786 her parents being Robert and Elizabeth I have a copy of the entry.

Author: Christinemaloney53 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.england.sfk.general/8609.4.1.3/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hi Tracey, I have just looked at the back of the research documents that came from Suffolk. On the back it says Suffolk Records Office Bury Street Edmunds branch reference. This is for Mary Ann Debenham baptized 16/11/1786. To Robertand Elizabeth Debenham.Depden bapt. File ( Fl561/4/2) Fiche it looks like 307 then 7 it is hard to read. Mary may have married again as Thomas died aged 51. He died 08/06/1828, Arthur was only 5 years old when his father Thomas died. He is buried in the Parish of Poslingford in the County of Suffolk. so I think I have the right birth date for Mary Ann Debenham.
