Poppyann,

Any idea what his wife's first name might have been?  Nothing stands out in Chiddingly or close by.   :(

Hi Nell, I think Williams wife could have been Lucy. Their children were born in Chiddingly. Regards Poppyann

Have to admit I hadn't looked beyond the immediately adjacent parishes!

Yes I should have added a few miles as the crow flies, by road its probably a lot more  ::) but then if William was using footpaths, a lot quicker  ;D
