Hello Russel B,

I'm a bit confused as to what you're looking for.

You say James' father was William Blake - do you mean his son?  The date you give for his father (1783) is after the date for the son (1760)  ???

There's a baptism at Hethersett, 7 November 1784, William Blake, baptised by James Blake and Mary Breeze.

Hello again,

This is very curious.

Hethersett baptisms show these -

1782 - James, son of James and Mary Blake (late Breeze) - https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-267-12401-9036-64?cc=1416598&wc=13671821

1784 - William, son of James and Mary Blake (late Breeze) - image 2

1786 - Benjamin, son of James and Sarah Blake (late Breeze) - image 2

1788 - John, son of James and Sarah Blake (late Breeze) - image 4

1791 - Sarah & Jane, daughters of James and Sarah Blake (late Breeze) - image 5

1797 - George, son of James and Sarah Blake (late Breeze) - image 7

1800 - Mary, daughter of James and Sarah Blake (late Breeze) - image 8

1805 - Hariot, daughter of James and Sarah Blake (late Breeze) - image 10

Apologies if you already have these.

I'll try to find out when James and Sarah died - might give a bit more insight into their ages.
