Many thanks once again - your help was much appreciated a year or so ago. Since then I have made fair progress on my family roots in Framlingham.

Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / Marriage, Framlingham 1775
« on: Saturday 22 January 11 18:43 GMT (UK)  »
Hi to the helpful

I am looking for any details that can be found concerning the marriage of Hannah Scrivener to John Roper in Framlingham, 1775. I know the parish record exists. Hannah's father, Richard,  was a non-conformist, so the marriage will be by licence I expect, but not necessarily. If not, I am curious as to whether there  are any children born thereafter. Thanks for any help offered.

Thanks once more Diddy ;)

I also thought Braintree, Essex would be his birthplace, but others have said it could just as well be his place of residence at the time of his marriage. I checked the parish registers for Braintree, but could find no mention of any Scriveners - being a nonconformist only marriages are likely to be recorded anyway. They were very hard to read.

There were so many Scriveners in the Ipswich area and the fact that he married a Hannah Ridley from Woodbridge would seem to suggest he was from the same area. Perhaps he had accepted a teaching post in Braintree, who knows? Anyway, I have recorded all the info I can obtain on the Scriveners of the Ipswich area in the hope that one day I'll find the missing link.

Kind regards,

Alan

Thanks very much Diddy. ;)

Since the original posting I have been to the Suffolk record office in Ipswich. There were a few references to Richard b. 1727 in the presbyterian records and I saw the parish entries for his marriages by licence to Hannah Ridley then Abigail Keer. All were literate; for the former he is listed as "of Braintree Essex", which could refer to his birthplace or place of residence.   ???


Does the burial index include nonconformists?

Thanks again for your help.

Regards,

Alan

Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / Debenham parish c.1700 LU - JENNINGS/MANN

I'd appreciate any help in finding the parents/ancestors of Elizabeth Jennings born c. 1706 Debenham, baptised Elmswell 12/8/1706 and married John Mann 28/1/1734 Debenham.

Also looking for the ancestors of John Mann himself, born c. 1712 Debenham, d. 13/9/1792 Badingham.

I shall be in the UK soon. As far as I am aware, I have exhausted any info available at Kew and so I am contemplating a visit to the Suffolk Records Office in Ipswich. I have no idea how to proceed with my searches once there. If I go, are there staff members there who will show me the ropes?

Thanks for any help/advice

Hi Rick

Many thanks for your prompt reply and advice. I've only been working on my tree since last autumn and have been able to find a fair bit. I've looked at this site several times and am glad that I've finally made contact.

Best regards,

Alan
