William Skipper of Catfield looking for death
« on: Monday 26 August 13 15:35 BST (UK) »
My x3 great grandfather William Skipper was baptised at South Walsham St Mary's in 1794. He married Charlote Myhill at Catfield on 27/12/1814. They had a total of 11 children between 1814 and 1840. Thay are both on the 1841 and 1851 Census but after that I can'tffind them...there are other William Skippers but I don't think they are the right one. Any advice please as I totally trust roots chatters. I've tried Freereg and all other main genie sites, trawled Catfield and South Walsham registers on Family search for burials no luck. Brain getting weary!

On the 1861 census Looks like Daughter Caroline 1841 is living with another Skipper family in Brancaster.
Was Charlotte born in Aldeburgh ?

thanks  for your reply....Charlotte was born and baptised in Catfield. Not made any progress on Wiiliam...might move on to another line then come back later...sometimes that works ;)
