Hi everyone,
I'd greatly appreciate any help with confirming the parents of Robert Harmer born 1769 in Norfolk. I believe his parents to be a Robert Harmer Junior and a Millah (this is what I've found on IGI). I am stuck at this however, and cannot find anything further. The name Millah is unusual and I am not sure if it is a diminutive of Amelia?
Robert Harmer born 1769 married Rebecca Fisher born 1770 if this helps.
Sorry if the information is scant, please do tell me if you would require any further information to help.
Thank you!

IGI has mother's name as Gimmillah Barret .... father Robert
chr 17 Sept 1769 Thornage
-
... and marriage 1800 in Brinton to Ann Partridge :-\ ... 6 children are also named.
-
Freereg confirm baptism at Thornage All Saints with mother as Millah.
-
There is another Robert Harmer chr 25 June 1796 in Norwich - father John, mother Elizabeth, so you need to make sure you have the right Robert.
Have a look on Freereg and see if you can work out who fits where ....
Familysearch has a lot of PRs for Norfolk so you might like to trawl through to see if you can locate images of the original PRs.
