I have two Fisher brothers who travelled from Hampshire to Norfolk/Suffolk area, presumably to find work. They were John FISHER 1775 who married Mary Ann Unknown from Wingfield, Suffolk in around 1818 and Thomas FISHER 1790 who married Elizabeth Oakes in Thorpe Abbots, Norfolk 6 July 1819. Both brothers subsequently returned to Hampshire with their brides. Would love to have the details of John's marriage to find out who Mary Ann might have been. Valerie
Dear Listers, Thankyou to all those people how responded to my query regarding the FISHER family. I will have to read through them all and make notes, hopefully one will connect with the family I am researching. Thankyou again. Regards Nicole AUSTRALIA
Hello Valerie, I found on Parish Records. John Fisher married on the 8th November 1821 Mary Ann DRYDEN at St Mary Stoke, Ipswich, Suffolk. I went all through the Parish records covering 5 years before and after the date you gave, and this was the only Mary Ann. Hope this helps you. regards, Mavis from Australia. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Valerie Bowden" <valerie@richardscott.co.uk> To: <suffolk@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, August 06, 2010 6:19 PM Subject: [SFK-UK] More Fishers > I have two Fisher brothers who travelled from Hampshire to Norfolk/Suffolk > area, presumably to find work.
