Corpusty ROBERTSON

[SewGill]

Thanks Keyboard86, I will look at your leads. I'm still not sure how to tie Amy to her parents without a baptism record - any hints or ideas appreciated.

Hi it is possible that Amy had a brother John who was buried 30th January 1799 Corpusty as an infant,  parents Simon/Mary

  As I cannot locate a baptism for this possible brother of Amy nor can I tie him to his parents?!

That’s awful! Poor little thing.

Marriage;
11 Nov 1816, St Lawrence, Norwich
Simon ROBERTSON, Widower, to Mary GOOSE, Widow

So there is more than 1 Simon about or he married twice?

[trish1120]

Baptisms, St Peter, Corpusty;
ELIZABETH Robarts 23 March 1795
JOHN Roberts 24 Sep 1797***
MARY Roberts 01 Sep 1799
Parents SIMON/MARY
(FreeREG)

2 More Children christened Corpusty on Familysearch.Org;
JOSEPH Roberson 16 November 1806
JOHN Roberson 11 December 1808
Parents SIMON/MARY

So room for Amy to fit in between Mary 1799 and Joseph 1806.

The name certainly changes from Roberts to Robertson.

Mary 1799 never married.
1861 she is Mary Roberts 61 born Corpusty, Mother in Law to Francis Horner.

Cant find a Baptism for Esther c 1820 but she marries as Esther Roberts to Francis HARMER 22 Jun 1840   Wood Dallin and names no Father.

1851 with Francis/Esther Horner and children are;
Mary Roberts   52
John Roberts   25 born Wood Dalling

JOHN Robertson Baptised 27 Nov 1825 Wood Dalling, Mother MARY Robertson

Trish

EDIT;
1841 in Wood Dalling we have;
Mary Roberts, 42
Thos Reynolds, 70
Jas Ward, 15

So Thos Reynolds may be an Uncle?
