Title: Sarah King Wickhambrook Baptism/Marriage
Post by: Olive M on Thursday 07 January 16 09:01 GMT (UK)

Hi
Please could someone help me to find the parents of Sarah King, born Wickhambrook 1811 (?). Sarah married John Murkin on 25 September 1827. Sarah died in 1854, after producing 9 children.

Thanks

Although both John and Sarah state born Wickhambrook they both appear to have been baptised in Stradishall (the 2 places within spitting distance) - when they married Sarah's name given as Sally.

John Murkin b.12/1/1809, bp.5/2/1809 Stradishall, son of John and Prudence (nee Hurrell).

Sally King b.28/3/1811, bp.14/4/1811 Stradishall, dau. of Edward and Martha (nee Ling).

Hi Annette
Thank you so much.

I've found several with the Wickhambrook/Stradishall connection. Seems it was quite a common thing to do.

Now I have another little puzzle. Where does Edward fit with my Wickhambrook Kings! I'm sure I'll find the link.
Best wishes
