Was Nathan Rumbelow one of your family, he was of Mildenhall apparently?

He died on the 8th August 1846, having walked 4 miles the previous day. He served under Rodney 60 years previously.

The Ipswich journal reports on his death it its edition of Saturday August 15th.

alijet,

Just for your records the full report reads:

The Ipswich Journal Saturday, August 15, 1846

8th inst., at the advanced age of 96, Nathan Rumbelow, of Mildenhall. The deceased was in the forces under renowned Admiral Rodney, upwards of 60 years since; and within a few days of his death walked a distance of four miles without assistance.

This would mean that he was a sailor, and fought with Admiral Rodney against the French in the American War of Independence.

There are a number of entries for Rumbelow in the newspaper-in Mildenhall, where one was a constable, at Freckingham

Unfortunately due to the fact that the newspaper reported mostly on local events, there are numerous court reports, but also BMD.  There are also adverts for the sale of property-a Philip Rumbelow of Bramford for instance.

alijet,

All that info comes from 48 British national newspapers available from gale Databases, but available online at Lancashire Library.

Yes easy-if in Uk, or abroad, go to

 http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/onrl/

You will see the database on the right of the screen.  You have to join the library first, yes join it as you would any other library. They send you a library ticket, with a serial number upon it and use that number to gain access. You do have to give you home address, so they can send you the library ticket. If abroad, then they send you the ticket number online. It's all explained on the website. It's very addictive.

I did find that a John Rumbelow went to prison at Bury in 1826 for having children chargeable to the parish.
The Ipswich Journal Saturday, October 27, 1827

Commitments to Bury Gaol:

John Rumbelow and James Thomson, by Robert Eagle Esq., convicted of misdemeanors in the parish of Mildenhall, in wilfully permitting their families to become chargeable; to be imprisoned 14 days.

There are now confined in this Gaol 135 prisoners, including 20 debtors, which is an increase of 13 from corresponding period in 1826-twelve are for conviction under game laws.

Just as well that doesn't happen now-the prisons would be full!!

I also found that the wife of a John Rumbelow, farmer died:

The Ipswich Journal Saturday, October 22, 1881
   Rumbelow, 17inst.,at Freckenham, at advanced age, Mrs Rumbelow, relict of Mr. John Rumbelow, farmer.
