Title: James Kerriage c.1809
Post by: windy_miller on Sunday 15 December 13 00:58 GMT (UK)

You can tell I've been to the Record Office!  More questions than answers!!!

I've located a miller called James Kerriage from Suffolk.  He had a sone called George (born c.1809).  His son was marriage at Alderton in 1839 to Mary Thompson.

If there is anyone following this family and who knows where James was milling I'd be grateful.

Well looks like James is a dead end!

Might have a double check his surname!!!

Hi Windy

I saw your post pre Christmas & had a quick look.  I too found George son of James & Joanna the one small problem I found was:

Joanna Kerridge, age 43, buried 5 May 1809, Woodbridge St Mary (wife of James - tailor) Source Suffolk Burial Index.

Hi there
James was noted as a tailor and draper also in articles in the Ipswich Journal in 1801 and 1816, so think can rule him out.  I do have a number of millers in my Kerridge database, either K's themselves or spouses.  Happy to share if likely to be of interest

BTW James married again later the same year as Joanna died, to a Sarah Kerridge, not sure if she was a relative or not
