William Kirby/Sarah Ward Norfolk Area

[Mollyrobz]

Hello,

I’m wondering if anybody could help me? I’m trying to find information on two people, first William Kirby b 1801(roughly) in Norfolk(?) and secondly Sarah Ward b 1804(roughly) in Melton, Norfolk(?). I believe they had a dau named Mary Ann Kirby who was b 1851 and she married William Reeve b 1850, Wymondham Norfolk.

Any info on the first couple would be amazing as I’m struggling to find anything on them. No info is too small

All the best
Molly
