Good Afternoon Friends from a cold day in Melbourne
Robert was born in Framlingham and married Sarah Calver. If possible I would like to know when and where they married. If possible can we determine a christening date for Sarah?
Regards

Excellent dectective work. I can find my way around Cornwall without too much difficulty but Suffolk is a new experience. I will be there next summer in order to understand the layout of the place and take in the culture.
Thanks again

Peter I have been digging around Suffolk for about 20 years. It's fairly well documented these days and since I do all my digging via mail or internet I think I've done pretty well to date.
Lucky you being able to go over there... one of these days when the kids get lives of their own.... maybe just maybe .... ;D
Cheers

As for Sarah... I don't know if either of these are of any use, but they are all that I could find that came close to what you are looking for....

Thought that yew tew t'gether might like to see the Framlingham Archive website cos thet is whully good!
http://framlinghamarchive.org.uk to give you an idea of the town in the past.
Plant and Calver are both names that are found in the town and around that part of the county today.

To Karenlee and Pat ;D
Thanks for your efforts. Visiting Suffolk is a must. Until I spent a week in Cornwall in June 2007, I did not fully appreciate the villages, the customs and the heritage of the place. Now whenever I read Cornish records I can picture in my mind where we are. Hopefully by this time next year I can say the same for Suffolk.
regards and Thanks

I believe Robert's father was Robert Plant b.c.1731, brother of my ancestor Sarah Plant who married Robert Naunton. Robert b.1766's mother was Jemima Bloomfield.
I have been piecing together this Plant family with help from wills.

Greetings Steve :D
Thank you for the information On Robert and his possible sister Sarah. I am unfamiliar with Norfolk and Suffolk so I need to rely upon people who live or have a good knowledge of these places. I am at home in Cornwall having visited a number of times but Norfolk and Suffolk have eluded me in my travels. Except for trying to track down the origins of the "Plant" name, I have not really looked at this side of the family in recent years but thank you for the clues which may now advance my look for further ancestors.
regards and thanks
