Hello Helen

This could be a total red herring but they had a habit of repeating christian names in families so these might give a lead to an area of Suffolk:

From the Suffolk Burial Index
Christopher GREEN (son of Alexander) buried 30 Oct 1737 Knodishall, St Lawrence
Christopher GREEN (infant) buried 14 Apr 1751 Aldeburgh, St Peter & St Paul

Knodishall is not far from Aldeburgh.   No other Christopher GREEN(E) burials listed in the parishes covered by the SBI around the time you are looking for.

K

ps.  Looks like Alexander's wife was Lambert (unusual christian name?)

Or Keziah you may have uncovered another clue - perhaps her mother's maiden name was Lambert, or her father's mother was a Lambert?

I know, we dew get are family names all muddled up in Suffolk  ::)

Pat ...
Every time I find an ancestor,
I have to find two more!

SUFFOLK - Pendle, Stygall, Pipe, Fruer, Bridges, Fisk, Bellamy, Sparham - all link to  Framlingham 
DERBY - Bridges and Frost (originally Framlingham/Parham)
NOTTINGHAM - Lambert & Selby
BERKSHIRE/then Hammersmith LDN - Fulker
LDN/MDX - Murray, Clancy, Broker, Hoskins, Marsden, Wilson, Sale
 
GGfather Michael Wilson born Cork, lived Fulham London - moved to Boston USA 1889, what happened next?
