I once contacted someone who said he had (in his tree) a Matthew Bradford born 1770 in Little Thurlow, Suffolk. I asked how he came across this info. While waiting, I went to the RO and checked Little Thurlow baptisms and then checked Great Thurlow baptisms. No Matthew Bradford baptism could be found. I did find a William Bradford born 1767 to Thomas and Ann (the parents of this mystery Matthew).
When the person on Ancestry answered my email, he just sent me a copy of a sheet which just said what was said on his tree. He never stated the source of info for Matthew's baptism but in his tree and on his sheet of info it said Matthew was born Little Thurlow. I asked him if he had actually FOUND Matthew's baptism record and I never got any answer after that.
