Bromeswell KING families

[Vella]

Is anyone researching the KING families of Bromeswell? I am looking for the parents of my 3xgrt grandmother Elizabeth b. circa 1801. She was married and is buried in St Edmund's Bromeswell.

Hopefully a rootschatter will be able to search the Bromeswell parish records for you - alas, not on the IGI.

Looking at this family on the internet and NBI think that Elizabeth is probably the daughter of George King who married Sarah Green 26/2/1794 Marlesford.   They had a dau. Elizabeth bp.10/3/1794, bur.30/3/1794 at Marlesford but no other children there.   Think they then went to Bromeswell.

From submitted trees looks like:

John King bc.1736-40 bur.13/5/1790 Marlesford married Elizabeth Markin (bc.1736, bur.10/1/1817 Marlesford) married 14/11/1757 Marlesford.   Children baptised Marlesford were:

Catherine bp.23/4/1758
Martha bp.28/10/1759
Elizabeth bp.18/1/1761
Susanna bp.19/1/1763, bur.30/1/1763
Mary bp.5/1/1764, bur.29/1/1764
John bp.12/11/1765 bur.8/7/1828 Bromeswell
Charles bp.30/5/1767 bur.15/4/1770
Susanna bp.5/1/1769
George bp.22/3/1771 bur.27/8/1848 Bromeswell
Henry bp.30/7/1772  bur.23/8/1772
Charlotte bp.29/6/1774 bur.7/8/1774
Joseph bp.9/4/1778 bur.15/2/1852 Bromeswell
William bp.9/4/1778 bur.6/1/1822 Marlesford   

Three of their sons went to Bromeswell - already mentioned George who married Sarah Green, Joseph who married Elizabeth Burroughs/Burrows 12/10/1803 Woodbridge and John who married Deborah Pannifer 24/11/1807 Bromeswell.

I note that Elizabeth Lovett (nee King) was buried Bromeswell 11/8/1833 aged 32 - also a George King Lovett, infant,  on 17/10/1832 and a Sarah Lovett, 1+, 9/3/1827.

From the 3 sons who went to Bromeswell 2 didn't marry until after 1801 (and Joseph actually had a dau. Elizabeth later) so George King and Sarah Green look the likely parents.   Hopefully someone will be able to confirm this after a check of the parish registers.

Good Luck.

Thankyou very much Annette7;

This afternoon my search (via Family search IGI)  for Elizabeth King has led me too, to an Elizabeth, baptised 1801 with parents George and Sarah nee Green, although her birthplace is shown as Kettleburgh. This is very interesting as I have a John King b. 1794 Kettleburgh who is also on my tree awaiting a connection! I wonder if they are brother and sister. They are both buried in St. Edmund's, Bromeswell. Elizabeth married William Levett and died in 1833 and is buried with her infant children Sarah and Geroge as you have found. I have actually visited the grave but at that time did not know her exact age and who her parents were. It looks as though George and Sarah are the most likely parents.
In the graveyard near to that of Elizabeth's, I also found the headstone of a John King and his wife Deborah so it looks even more promising that they are all from the same family.
Thankyou very much for your help!
