Thanks for passing on that website - I have printed the details off and will have a good read of them.  I am now on the other side of the world so it is good to be able to see something of where our ancestors came from.

'Tis said, the (Murder in the) Red Barn was stained with the juice of the cherries which has been stored there after harvesting  Shocked

You could have come over to ours, we had a lot of cherries this year, but I think the blackbirds got more than we did  Roll Eyes

My tree includes that murder too, my 2XgT Grandmother's neice.
For the lady who was asking about the Ballhams, have you tried the Cosford database? http://www.cosford-database.co.uk/

A visit to St Mary's is well worth the effort. The view is amazing. Anyone know if there are any cemetery records as the grave stones are so hard to read now.

Thanks for offers of assistance - do not know how to use the Personal Manager!! but perhaps someone will point me in the right direction.

I have tried the Cosford Database and found lots of Baalhams for my tree - there was a lot of info.  I have yet to look at the alternative spellings though.

Thanks again

Hi
i have a small connection with had Baalham family. My 2x great Grandfather Robert Lockwood was a lime burner and lived in Needham market suffolk. His son William was my greatgrandfather and so the Lockwood name is my main research. However there was also a daughter Charlotte and she married John Baalham in 1871. I can give you more info on that family if it is any interest to you.
regards Janet

I have not come across Charlotte Lockwood in my research.  I would be interested to know more about this marriage.

The closest John Baalham I have in my tree was born in 1760 in Polstead but that would not fit with the marriage date and his wife in any case was Susan Watson.

Thanks for your interest

there is not a great deal I can tell you except Charlotte was the eldest child of Robert Lockwood and Mary Ann Pilbrough. She was born in Needham market suffolk 6th Feb 1848. She married John Baalham in 1871. In 1881 census they lived in Creeting Green with five young children. 1891 they lived in Stow Road Old Newton with still 4 children still at home. 1901 Charlotte had become a widow and was a house keeper for Maria Haywood also a widow.
John Baalham was born 1846 son of William Baalham and Margaret. John was an ag lab and born in creeting st james.
John and Charlotte had Walter 1872
William John 1873
Henry Alfred 1876
Anna 1879
Ernest 1881 and Emily 1885. John died 1898.
