CASTLES around Rickinghall
« on: Sunday 21 September 08 20:46 BST (UK) »
My 3gt grandfather Henry Castle married Ann Garnham in Rickinghall Superior. According to the 1841 census, Henry was born in Suffolk around 1806. His burial entry in 1845 suggests he was born around 1808. He was not baptised in the Rickinghalls or in Botesdale. The greatest Castle presence I've noticed was in nearby Stanton.
I have been stuck on this for several years.
Where was Henry born/baptised?
Help greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Mark

This couple appear on Boyds marriage index.


1801  /CASTLE  WM / WITE  LUCY / REDGRAVE / SUFFOLK 


Quite close to the Rickinghalls.

 :D

It looks like according to the IGI that the above couple baptised a child in Gt. Barton in 1809. Have you tried that parish?

Thanks Suffolk Sue
I can't find Great Barford on IGI. Is it? What name did that Castle child have who was baptised in 1809?

 I have found William Castle and Lucy White's son William Castle baptised on 27 Jul 1814 in "Suffolk County bts" wherever that is!


I've previously noted in the 1841 census farmer William Castle born about 1781 married to Sarah (born about 1786) living in Stanton with a son  John Castle b c1811.

Has anyone out there got access to the Stanton parish register?

Thanks again

The name of the child baptised in 1809 was Mary.

Gt. Barton is quite close to Stanton

Gt. Barton doesn't appear to be on the IGI.  :'(

bts are short for bishops transcripts.
