Title: John Pigman baptism record
Post by: curtisandsissy on Friday 04 January 13 16:47 GMT (UK)

Hello all,

Can someone help me find the birth record of John Pigman who married Sarah Rhodes 12 Oct. 1733 in Norwich.  He was most likely born in Hunstanton.  They are possibly my 5th great grandparents.  :-\

Hello,

There is a baptism of John Pigman in 1712, Hunstanton, father George - unfortunately no mother's name is entered - from Freereg - http://www.freereg.org.uk/cgi/SearchResults.pl?RecordType=Baptisms&RecordID=267361

You're welcome!

Family Search have free online images of many Norfolk parish registers.

I found the entry for John Pigman's baptism - https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-266-12528-1827-93?cc=1416598&wc=MMVP-QLR:n449697201

Interestingly, there is another baptism of a "John George" son of George Pigman in 1710.

You can look through the entries by using the forward and back arrows next to where it says "Image" at the top - you may be lucky and find more entries for the family.
