Apologies for not replying sooner, but have been away.

Thank you for the interesting information.  The name seems to change quite a bit from Madgett (my maiden name) to Matchett. 
I suppose with a strong accent these sound very much alike.

Thanks again.

There's a whole cycling dynasty of Madgett's in recent Diss, but you may already know that...

Many thanks for your comment - my Madgetts seem to go directly back to John Madgett who married Elizabeth Gibbon in Thrandeston 1779, but so far cannot link my Madgetts to the Diss dynasty!
I cannot fine his birth after many years of looking. I did find a family of Madgetts in Saxlingham Nethergate, which had Johns, but earlier there name is Matchett, but I am checking on these.

Thanks again
