Just wondering if anyone else out there is connected to this family?
I am looking for 2 William Southwells, both of whom moved to Brandon in Suffolk and appear in the settlement certificates there in 1805. One is aged about 25 at the time, the other 30. One is also witness to the other's wedding in Brandon in 1803...
The settlement certificates are the only indication we have to the place of origin of these two - I'm aware that there is a William bapt in Lockerley on the IGI for 1779, but I've just been given some info which would indicate that he married in that village in 1803. There is another William bapt in Broughton in 1775, but I've also just found that he did not leave Hamsphire....
Having a point in time where it feels as though I'm so close to cracking where these 2 Williams fit into the Southwell of Lockerley family - but every time I think I've cracked it, something comes along to prove me wrong :-).
Very grateful for any help that may be out there,
Jenna
