Suffolk / Re: William CLARKE, married in EYE, SFK, living in WESTHALL, SFK

Sorry about forgetting the dates. William CLARKE married Mary STANNARD in Eye, Suffolk on 13 Apr 1789. The entry says William was a widower. Looking through the Eye records, CLARKE does not seem to be an Eye name. But. There are STANNARDS in Eye from the beginning of the records. I think Mary Stannard b.c. 1761 was the daughter of Ann STANNARD, (bc 1736) who was the daughter of Richard STANNARD and Mary CLARKE. William CLARKE and Mary STANNARD had six children in Eye: Samuel 1790, Martha 1792, Isaac 1794, Mary 1794, Danford John 1797, Hannah 1799 (my 3X great grandmother). Then there is a period of six years where they "disappear". The family re-appears in Westhall with the baptisms of the following children: Thomas 1805, Mary 1807 and Charlotte 1810.
I would love to compare notes with anyone else researching this family. In particular, I am looking for the parents of my 4X great grandfather, William CLARKE.
