I am hoping someone may be able to check the records of a Wattisham marriage for me, please?
Suffolk Marriage Index has a John Goff and Elizabeth Cooper marriage in Wattisham 01 Dec 1761.
This may be my couple, but if so they are about 25 miles away from where I expected them and 5 months after the death of John's first wife. Not impossible, I admit.
I'd be very interested in their marital status, and if any parishes or groom's occupation is mentioned.
Thank you

I can't answer your specific question but I thought this might amuse you - from a book of travels in Suffolk in the 1730s.
