Thank you,  that's interesting.  A family story is we came over as hugenots

Good point.  I've tried suffolk archives online etc.  Still,  it's further than I ever got before and (even though I'm adopted)I feel I have some roots. If you know what I mean

Thank you for all your help.  I have confirmed my roots back to Robert Layte and really pleased to have roots in Suffolk. I just can't find the Sarah Adams you both mention and would like to find their parents

Where has the surname 'Kurtz' come from?  A tree on Ancestry states this BUT the link they post for the marriage 21/7/1732 Catton, England shows bride as a Sarah Adams??

I can't find this information any where on IGI. Just that his wife was Sarah

Not at all sure now.  Just checked IGI and nothing for even my grandad Henry Stanley Lait. When I was a child we had Thomas Lait b1781 d1859 on our tree.  Mum was big into genealogy so I could trust that i think. I've just gone from there but can't seem to get anything from IGI

Oh no.  Was so excited.  What's best to do now? Does this mean everything is wrong?? Thanks for your advice

I took it from two sites but its apparently on another person's tree and also their blog..  There was a son,  Robert layte in 1748. Not found who he married yet but his father was Robert Layte born 1708 married Sarah Kurtz. My line goes Robert, Timothy, Thomas, Alfred, Henry Timothy,  Henry Stanley, and my father Raymond. All laits or Laytes.  All the births, stories,  legends etc match
