Sarah King Wickhambrook Baptism/Marriage
« on: Thursday 07 January 16 09:01 GMT (UK) »
Hi
Please could someone help me to find the parents of Sarah King, born Wickhambrook 1811 (?). Sarah married John Murkin on 25 September 1827. Sarah died in 1854, after producing 9 children.

Thanks

Although both John and Sarah state born Wickhambrook they both appear to have been baptised in Stradishall (the 2 places within spitting distance) - when they married Sarah's name given as Sally.

John Murkin b.12/1/1809, bp.5/2/1809 Stradishall, son of John and Prudence (nee Hurrell).

Sally King b.28/3/1811, bp.14/4/1811 Stradishall, dau. of Edward and Martha (nee Ling).

Hi Annette
Thank you so much.

I've found several with the Wickhambrook/Stradishall connection. Seems it was quite a common thing to do.

Now I have another little puzzle. Where does Edward fit with my Wickhambrook Kings! I'm sure I'll find the link.
Best wishes
