Forby or Barrett/Barritt from Norfolk

[Jason46]

I am interested in obtaining info on Mary Forby (1759 to 1809) father Richard Forby, born 1735, grandfather Thomas Forby, born 1710, possibly all from Tittleshall, Norfolk. Also Barrett or Barritt from same area.

They are Baptisms not Birth Dates

Thanks again! Any mention of a Sarah Barritt, Mary's daughter, born in 1786 in Tittleshall?

[trish1120]

Sarah does not appear to be on FreeREG. Have you checked Familysearch.Org for her?

[Jason46]

Yes Trish - no luck there. Sarah Barritt was born in Tittleshall in 1786 and married Lewis Wilcher 28 Feb 1810. No other info,

Hi Trish
I went back to LDS and found a 2nd Mary Forby, Father Thomas Forby and mother Susan (probably Harvey). They were married 11 Oct 1757 and their Mary was christened 6 Oct 1765 at Stoke Ferry Norfolk. There is also a Mary Forby, married Henry Francis, 12 Nov 1770 at Tittleshall, as well as a Mary Forby marrying William Barrett 25 Mar 1777 at Tittleshall. There also seem to be a lot of Richard Forby's around at this time and I was wondering if you could please check your resources for more Mary, Thomas or Richard Forby in Norfolk
