JESSOP/NUNN
« on: Thursday 14 April 11 06:50 BST (UK) »
Am trying to trace more family history - this time my 5x great grandparents - William Jessop c 1755 and Elizabeth Nunn c 1755 - married 14 February 1777 in Huntingfield, Suffolk at St Mary's Church.

Then have the issue of James Jessop in 1784 but conflicting reports as to where he was born (ultimately a convict transported to Australia).

Any information would be much appreciated.  Thanks.

I also searched back through the Huntingfield register in search of William and Elizabeth but couldn't find them.  Very frustrating as a John and Mary Nunn and Robert and Martha Jessup were baptising children in the village 1750s/1760s but still couldn't place William and Elizabeth.  If you want details of the other baptisms let me know.
