Bapt Lookup - PIPER - Melford Assington
« on: Sunday 04 March 12 16:58 GMT (UK) »
Hi All

Can anyone help me with a lookup on any of these christenings? The family is in Assignton, Suffolk. John and Maria Piper. It relates to the thread here:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=584775.new%3Btopicseen#new

I'm wonderng what the father's occupation is recorded as (if at all). Mary Ann fits as one of my relatives, she recorded her father's occupation as Slater.

John Piper 17 May 1818   
Harriet Piper 07 Jul 1822   
Mary Anne Piper 26 Sep 1824
Maria Piper 15 Oct 1826   
William Piper 1828
John Piper 1830
Susanna Piper 1832
Thomas Piper 01 Mar 1834   
Sarah Piper 22 May 1836
Eliza Piper 1838 

Thanks

Alan

If the parents of all of these children were John & Maria then the family appear on the CRs
1841 John is a labourer, 1851 John is an agricultural labourer, 1861 John is a widow occ: Carter living at Hall Farm, Acton, Suffolk (Maria buried 1854 Long Melford age 54).  I think he was still alive in 1871 but could not find him on the 1871CR.  A john Piper Age 77 was buried on 17 Jun 1876 Long Melford.

Whole family born in Suffolk
