Ann HEARSUM married Henry/Harry COOK 1806 Capel St Mary. Does anyone have any info about whether either (or both) of them were bapt there? Anyone else researching this couple?
(My first time on Rootschat - I'm optimistically hoping for beginner's luck!)

if we look for them on the 1851 census that will give their birthplaces....
welcome to RC & the suffolk board!

Thanks for your interest Diddy. The only child I have for this marriage is Harriet bapt 1820 Capel St Mary so the chances are that there's several others before her.

there is an infant Jane Cook died the same day as Ann - possibly in childbirth?

just had a look on search and found someone back in 2008 i think researching Hearsums in Capel.
dont know how to link but if you go to top of page use search / put in Hearsum/ go to bottom and unclick all and put in suffolk /enter will take you there!

Thanks Sue for the burial info and Diddy for the extra one and also the hint about 'search' (successfully navigated). I see that Suffolk RO sells PR fiche - something to think about.

If you buy fiche, you do not need to buy the whole set for a parish, you can order just those with the years that you need for your research 8)
