Thank u soooo much. I often go up to north Norfolk so will deffo look for the graves.
Did u know that the pews in the church were carved by william bone who married lily Louisa Binks my great grandmother?
Did u know that Maria Binks travelled the countryside in her pony and trap dealing in Antiques and buying at the Auctions. She had a big store on the village green at sedgeford . Hubby Thomas was a farmer and they set all their children up in business.
Who is ur 2 and 3 x great grandparent ?

Hi again Loops, Am glad you like the info' & bearings.
If you click THIS link below & scroll down, you'll see my Dad's father, my Paternal Grandad.
Scroll down to the picture of Bobby Moore & it's the picture to his left....
http://theyflysohigh.co.uk/train-now-standing/4585619623 You'll notice it says... "Taken by his son, Ken", my Dad's Brother.
Ken "is" the one to give credit for our tree's history, he worked tirelessly on it.
I've corroborated it, some 25yrs later - N.R.O & microfische-film, proof-checking.
I drove Ken to Sedge' Church & we took the picture together, in fact, I took the shot**
( with HIS Olympus camera, of Edmond/Edmund & Charlotte's gravestone )
It's EXACTLY because of the L.N.E.R (railway), that I was born in London/Essex.
William.J (Bill), was born in Heacham (1901) & moved from Heacham to London (L.N.E.R)
They were crying out for Firemen & Drivers, so my Grandad went from one, t'other !
Ken was born in Norfolk, the "last" on our line to achieve that distinction - (d. Torquay)
In answer to your question - My "Direct-Line" - Going down chronologically.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Edmund (Edmond) & Charlotte Hudson = My Gt.Gt.Gt.Gt Grandparents
#
Edmund & Phoebe Hudson (nee' Woods) = My Gt.Gt.Gt Grandparents
#
Edward & Margaret Hudson (nee' Sands) = My Gt.Gt. Grandparents
#
William.J & Minnie Hudson (nee' Pearce) = My Gt.Grandparents
#
William.J** & Gertrude-Marion (nee' Clifford) = **That's my Grandpa on the West Ham site.
My Grandad Bill drove Britannia (70000) & B.17 Express trains on L.N.E.R & B.R

Another woman in N.Z obv's shares our dual ancestry, hence these.... (My direct-line)

Whilst I didn't know the full S.P on Maria, I did know she was rich-affluent, etc.
Am told she was SO well-off, that she bought her multitude of kids A HOUSE EACH !!!!!
Like I say, I "do" have a photo' of her (Maria) & her offspring (& Mr.Binks, her hubby.
The photo' came to me in a rather vandalised state, so needs "mucho-work".
When I eventually find it, I'll give it to the 'repair' guys on this site, to work on.
From memory, the photograph was taken around 1870, so, a VERY early picture indeed.
"If" you check that woman's links (above, Anna Arrol), you see addresses listed...
Malthouse Crescent, Heacham AND Robertson's Cottages.
Whilst both a now (today), demolished, I do have decent pictures**
** Roberstson's Cottages, that Ken took, back in the 1970's/1980's.
Look forward to all & any replies.....
