Roydon near Diss

[hunterterri58]

Hello again!
Now I have an ancester that was married in Roydon, near Diss in 1759.  His children are all born there, but I cannot find either him or his wifes birth.  It does not appear that the records are on line.

His name is Thomas Baldery and his wife is Elizabeth Wicks.  I am guessing that they would be born around 1730, but I can find nothing on Ancestry at all.

Any thoughts please?
Terri

Thomas Baldrey came from Bressingham and Samuel Wicks/Wix was a witness to his marriage to Elizabeth Wicks.

The following may be useful, Norfolk Records Office
Will of Samuel Wix of Bressingham died 1788, Ref: ANF 1774-1778 folio 418 no 113.

Also Deeds of property of Samuel Wix  in Roydon and Diss dated 1778  ref: BRA 641/70, 734x1
Index states it also contains a copy of the will of Samuel Wix.

You could get some clues on the family tree.
