Wow even more information thanks very much and also Ann's mothers maiden name (Atter - not very common I suspect).

Wonder why on Williams birth record Ann's maiden name was given as Burgess rather than Harvey. Is it possible Ann Twiddy (Harvey) died and Phillip then married another Ann (Burgess) or was Ann married before and her husband died?

Hi Anthony,
Had a look on the Norfolk transcriptions Archive site, and found this-

Marriages (Parish Register)
Fakenham 1805 Philip Twiddy to Ann Burgess
groom widr of hempton, bride of Billingford.

so Ann Twiddy (Harvey) must have died some time between 1802 and 1805

also in the Baptisms (parish Register)

Gt Walsingham 1780 Twiddy Philip, Parents William and Catharine.

which would make him 28 when he died.

Thanks for that, so now I have to look for a Burgess family in Billingford as well, shame the first wifes burial wasnt in the parish records. Also I did not know Philips parents before so that gets another generation back as well,

Thanks again that really has been a great help.

Hi Tanja

That at least explains why he is missing from the 1841 census I guess he was in Wakefield or somewhere between Wakefield and Walsingham.

Thanks for that

Anthony
