From GENUKI - Essex - Church History - List of Churches - Anglican Churches - there are a number of entries for St Mary Magdalene, one of which is in Colchester.

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

Hi
I would have thought it was the one in Colchester which is not too far from Layer and schooling in Colchester would suggest they probably lived there
