Title: Looking for Daniel BUTTON
Post by: JoTH on Monday 30 January 06 11:23 GMT (UK)
Hi

I am looking for Daniel Button born in Framlingham between 1774 and 1778 depending on which census year you look at.  I have found him in 1851, 61 and 71 and died in 1873 (where the date is slightly different and he would have been born in 1781).  But I need to find his birth and parents names.  He married Jemima French in 1806 in Saxmundam.

Any help much appreciated

Joanna

Hi Joanna

If no-one can help with this here on RootsChat, it might be worth contacting the volunteer who offers lookups from the Framlingham registers at the Suffolk Surname List.

1789 Jul 19 Daniel s/o Ezekiel & Sarah BUTTON late HOWARD baptised at Framlingham

I suggest it may be worth taking the advice about the Suffolk Surnames list for more!

Hi Dave & Suffolkmawther

I've just been going through old posts and just read your two posts on the subject.  I didn't thank you because I have never had a notification of these last two posts - don't know how that happened!!

So just to say a couple of years late THANK YOU :)
