Suffolk Lookup Requests / Re: Stradbroke/Eye/Fressingfield Parishes - GIRLING

Thanks again Anne. All very useful informaiton and a great help!
Do you know who the keeper of the SBI is? I'd love to try and get a copy, as that would help with other parts of the tree (I also had a quick look through the link and found that with the spelling "Girling" alone there are over 1700 records!).
Best,
Gregg

Anne,
Thank you so very much!! That's great!
I had seen the Winfarthing record some time ago and was unsure given the names whether it would be my ancestors, but that record was unsourced online, so it seems a reasonable to assume its reliable. Thanks!
With the Stradbroke records, do you know whether the dates you mention for their children are birth dates or baptisms? Incidentally, son John, is my ancestor.
Keziah,
Thank you so much for confirming Robert's details. You mention the "SBI." What is that - I've not come across the term.
Do either of you know of any resources that might shed light on occupations?
Thanks again. I really, really appreciate it.

Suffolk Lookup Requests / Stradbroke/Eye/Fressingfield Parishes - GIRLING

I'm a descendant of Thomas Girling (b.1695) and Mary, née King (b.1695) who were married in 1712. They are the furthest back that I've been able to trace my family and was hoping someone with access to parish records might help find more information about them and possibly take me further back.
I've seen references to Mary as born in Eye and/or Fressingfield, but nothing further and know that they lived in Stradbroke. I don't know where Thomas was born, but the Girlings were from the surrounding area. The surname has also been spelt as Grenling, Grenlinge, Grenlynge, Grenlyng, Gyrlynge, Gyrling, Gyrlyng, Girlynge, Gurling.
I know their children are listed as being born in various towns in the area (Lydia, in 1717 in Fressingfield, John in 1719 in Stradbroke and Elizabeth in 1726 in Fressingfield) and I know that 4 subsequent generations of my family, along the Girling line, lived in Stradbroke.
I'm hoping I can find leads to go earlier than Thomas and Mary as well as get any information that might shed light on the lives/occupations and places ancestors lived.
If anyone is able to access the parish records for this, I'd love to hear from them - particularly as I'm living some 17,000 kms away in Australia.
Thanks in advance for any help!
