Woodcock History in London/Norfolk
« on: Tuesday 08 November 16 21:44 GMT (UK) »
Hi

Really looking to find out more history past my Great Grandfather Samuel David Woodcock who was born in Sept 1881 in Mutford Suffolk/ Norfolk. Maried in 1907 in Grenwich. Had two Sons Albert, William and 3 girls - Gladys, Ceila and Pam. He died around the mid 60s. All we know is that his father could be a George he had sister who don't know the name and she had son called Percy. Any info much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Well the GRO online search shows a birth registered for Samuel in Sept. Quarter 1881, mother's maiden surname TURNER.  The district is Mutford and Lothingland.

I'll see if I can find him in the 1891 census.
