Hello one and all
I need your much valued help once again. My 3 x Great Grandmother Eliza Lockwood was born in Oakley Essex in about 1802. She married my 3 x Great Grandfather Thomas Fellingham in Mendlesham Suffolk in 1822. (Thomas was from there) I have great great grandfathers in the Lockwood line and most of them were born in Suffolk. I cannot find Eliza's parents at all, having looked through the usual channels known to me. I do feel there is a connection. I would be so grateful if you could help.
Kind Regards
SPARHAM

There is a Barking in Suffolk too, so I guess it is that one.

I have checked Gt and Lt Oakley in Essex and no Lockwoods. Have you considered Oakley in Suffolk. near Eye.

Tlhank you all so much. I think that the Oakley in Suffolk may be just the one. I will try that and thank you all so much once again.
