Hello all!
Here are my Essex surname interests:
MUNSON: 1600-1900 in Langham, Great Horkesley, Little Horkesley, Wivenhoe and Colchester. Also, I am in contact with several other people researching my MUNSON line, as well as many others researching other MUNSON families in the County.
Related families include Peachey, Seaborn, Nevard, Hamblin, Baserga, Wilby and many others.
BIGNELL & PASKE: Before 1850 in Harlow.
YELDHAM: Any/All in Stansted Mountfitchet, Halstead and London.
&...
RAVEN: Any/All in Stansted Mountfitchet area.
Thanks for reading!
Ryan.

Hi Ryan,
I am a descendent of a William Munson Mills who was baptised in Nayland, Suffolk on 10.3.1824. His parents were a John William Mills (b circa 1791 Dedham, veterinary surgeon) and Sarah. His wife was Mahala Kent (bap 5.5.1833 Wivenhoe, married March Q 1854, Wivenhoe). I have been unable at this point in time been able to determine where William inherited the middle name of 'Munson' from.
The only clue I have is a marriage located for me back in 2003 that had a Sarah Munson (single) marrying James Mills (widower) on 7/11/1754 in Ardleigh. I have not been able to connect this marriage yet to my John William Mills. I was wondering if you had any information in your Munson family material that may shed any light.

Hi.
Thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately I don't have any Sarahs who would be alive in that year.
No known Mills connection as of yet.
Good luck with your research into this.
Ryan.

Hello Ryan,
Now I knew a Kath Yeldham, who coincidentally loved in Great Yeldham, here in Essex, she was married to Bill Yeldham, he was a farmer I believe, in Great Yeldham, they have both passed on now, I think Kath went about 5 years ago, and at a good age, 90 plus, I also live next door to John Munson, married to a Sylvia King, both long time Colchester area, Essex residents, as were their precedents, do they ring any bells ????
regards,
Bob lima
