Alexander Jolly Married Elizabeth Darson 1643

[Lyndon Jolley]

I am after any information on the following two people if anyone can help:

Alexander Jolly, born in 1618 in Lidgate, Suffolk, England
Elizabeth Darson, born around 1622 in Lidgate, Suffolk, England
They were married on 2nd October 1643 (I think in Lidgate, Suffolk, England)

I know they had four children, Elizabeth born 1646, Phillip born 1653, Henry born 1657, and Alexander born 1660.

Alexander and Elizabeth are my GGGGGGGG (Great x Eight) Grandparents and I would like to know more about them and if anyone can tell me who their parents were because this is as far back I can go with my family tree. Thank you.

Suffolk Burial Index lists this one
Alexander JOLLY buried 26 Sep 1629 Lidgate - its the first recorded JOLLY burial in that parish on the SBI, no obvious sign of a Mrs Jolly from that source.

Previous generation maybe?

Is there any way you can email images of the actual parish registers? Or are they on film/microfiche?

[annes]

I looked at fiche copies of the registers at the local records office 

[Lyndon Jolley]

Is anyone able to look at the Cowlinge registers?
Apparently there are not a lot of registers recorded on the internet from Cowlinge?
If anyone can email me images of any records about the jolly's I can send you money through paypal to cover costs. I will give you my email address if you can, I can't post my email address here because I will get a lot of spam if I do.

Thank you annes, your information is very helpful.
Alexander may not actually be the father of Henry, I am still trying to confirm it, or find Henry's real father.
