On ancestry, but by documents not family trees as I realise they are not always reliable.

The Common Room / Help needed with ancestor called John Elphick

Hi all

I hope I have posted this in the right place!    I am looking for information on one of my ancestors.  I am trying to find out who his wife was.   His name was John Elphick and he was born in 1510 in Eastbourne, Sussex and died in August 1572 apparently in Chiddingly, Sussex.  Their son relevant to me was Edmund Elphick, born 1545 in Sussex.   I have seen many different versions of his wife for example, Elizabeth/Eleanor Sidney, Eleanor Taylor, but I cannot make any sense of it, various birthdates are given as 1510-1523 and born in Seaford Sussex or Penshurst, Kent!

Many thanks :-)

Thanks so much.  I see my eldest ancestor is Henry bacon of thurgarton who was born in 1460 and died in 1509.    Does anyone know how I can get further back.

It's been a long time since I have been on here - due to work committments, but I am now working again on my ancestry.  Please does anyone have a copy of the spurrel/bacon pedigree.  It was emailed to me a few years ago, but I cannot find it anywhere?

Thanks !

Norfolk / Bacon family of Thurgarton

Hi everyone.

I am looking for information on the Bacon family of Thurgarton.  My ancestor was Margaret Bacon who married a William Spurreln back in early 1600s.  Does anyone know anything about a link between the Bacons of Thurgarton and the Bacons of Baconsthorpe - are they related in anyway?

Hi everyone

I am trying to trace the birthplace of my above ancestor.   He was born in about 1735 and died in Berwick St John, Wiltshire, UK on 6 August 1786.   I cannot find any trace of where he was born.   I have tried Ancestry, but cannot find anything on him.   Where can I go next?   I am wondering if he could have been born in Ireland?    His wife's name was Mary James (who was probably born, definitely married and died in Berwick St John) and they were married in Berwick St John on 11 May 1758.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks everyone.  On the Bacon pedigree I see a property called Aylmerton Manor was once in their hands.   I have tried googling this and can nothing about it.  Would it have a different name now?
