hi, i have found Thomas on the suffolk burial indexx and think this is Ann:

Ann Gilson Gt Bradley  21/1/1813 age 85
also:
Elizabeth Gilson d/o Thomas & Ann 5/9/1769

there are 11 Gilson burials listed in Gt Bradley - PM me your email if you would like the list as a word doc.

there is a lot of info about GT Bradley family history on this site:

http://greatbradley.weebly.com/index.html

the gravestones list does not seem to contain Gilsons (there are some without names) however a quick peek on the forum has Gilsons mentioned - unless this is you!!

St Mary's, Waffham Priory

I think perhaps this might be Swaffham Prior in Cambridgeshire  :-\
