My ancestor Hannah Goodchild was born in 1801 or 1805 in Baddingham, Suffolk, she married Benjamin Baxter in either North Cove or Beccles, she was the postmistress (I believe) in Beccles in 1823 and died there in 1885.
I have never been able to find her parents, I did see a mention that perhaps she was a daughter of a Thomas Goodchild and Sarah Pollard, then again I have seen mention of John Goodchild and Elizabeth Mumford of Milden, Suffolk who married in 1789.
Any ideas anyone, I have the Baxter family but not the Goodchilds.

Hi Robin
I had a look at Baddingham PR, and found some baptisms of children of Thomas Goodchild and Sarah Pollard but could not see Hannah (not to say she wasn't there, but I did have a good look and could not spot her).
Children of Thomas and Sarah, who I did see, were
George 30.7.1791
Ruth 4.11.792
Susan 9.2.1794
George 8.11.1795
Thomas 12.5.1805
Thomas 23.5.1808
I double checked between 1795 and 1805, but nothing jumped out at me, although they probably would have had more children between those dates?
Sorry I could not be more help ...
Regards
Anne

Annes,
Many thanks for your research for me, it is interesting that there is a daughter called Ruth as Hannah and Benjamin had a daughter named Ruth, she was my great great grandmother - and my grandmother was named Emilie Ruth Sewell. As you say, there may have been other children in between the 1795 and 1808 children, not like them to not be having one every year and only 3 in those 13 years seems a bit lax on their part.
Anyway thanks and I am interested in the fact they had a child named Ruth

Hi Mathsboffin,
NIce to hear from you - my line is as follows going back from my grandmother Emilie Sewell on her maternal line,
1...Emilie Ruth Sewell 1889 - 1984, born Norwich, died Tauranga, NZ
2...Walter Sewell and Emily Martin
3...William Martin and Ruth Baxter, married in 1864, Wangford, and had 4 daughters - Emily Happy, Lucy and Helen
4...Benjamin Baxter and Hannah Goodchild
Does any of this tally up with yours, thanks for replying to me
Robin

Dear King William
No it doesn't - my Ruth Goodchild is the daughter of Thomas Goodchild and Sarah Pollard. All of the Goodchilds are connected somewhere I believe, but it doesn't appear that we have a connection (yet!).

Hi Mathsboffin,
Maybe your Ruth Goodchild is a sister to my Hannah Goodchild, she was born about 1805 and married Benjamin Baxter in 1824 in North Cove, they then moved to Beccles..
My Ruth was Ruth Baxter, the daughter of Hannah and Benjamin Baxter, and probably niece to your Ruth Goodchild
