Hi Wendy,

This could be a possibility.

A marriage in Blything (which was the registration district of Leiston) - Sept qtr 1849 between George Simmons and Harriet Ling. Vol 13 page 612.

Regards


Trish

Harriot LING Christened 05 March 1825, Leiston, Suffolk
Parents JOHN/HARRIOT
(Familysearch.Org)

Unfortunately Harriett is not with Parents in 1841 Census. She seems to be a Servant elsewhere.

1851 Census John/Harriett are born c 1799. John in Yarmouth, Norfolk and Harriett in Leiston, Suffolk.
Children at home are;
Elina 1834
Louisa 1838, both born Yoxford
John is a Blacksmith

1841 in Yoxford we have;
John Ling, 30
Harriot Ling, 30
Emily Ling, 9
Eleanor Ling, 7
Lucy Ling, 3
HO107/1017/12/Yoxford

You really need the M/C to confirm Harriets, Father and his Occp.
(That is if no one can help)

John LING Married Harriet SKINNER, 13 January 1825, Leiston, Suffolk
