Suffolk / St James, South Elmham Grave Photo's

« on: Sunday 21 November 21 01:43 GMT (UK) »

Hi, have several of my Crickmore ancestors buried at the St James Church in South Elmham, Suffolk, all from what I believe have headstones, would love to see photo's of their graves, have sent for photo requests through Find a Grave but as I don't know the grave details not sure if the requests will get fulfilled, is there anyone in the area or a certain website that you can make requests such as historical society's that have volunteers that are happy to wonder the grounds looking for my family members, big ask I know but living in Australia I'm never going to be able to do it myself, although that would be a dream.

Family History Beginners Board / John Wood Help

« on: Monday 21 August 17 03:08 BST (UK) »

Hello hoping someone more experienced than myself could help try and locate information for my GGG Grandfather John Wood, having trouble locating his baptism and his war records, Wood is a very popular name.

John Wood was born about 1825 in Hartford, Cheshire, England, father Samuel. He married Sarah Ann Graham in 1837 Lewisham, Kent, Greater England and died sometime between 1852 - 1857.

On the 1851 census record he is recorded as a Gunner, Driver, Royal Artillery at St Nicholas Island Barracks, Plymouth, Devon, England.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thankyou
