Title: Help please to find birth place/date of Sarah CORKE and Samuel GRICE
Post by: terngirl on Saturday 07 June 14 02:13 BST (UK)

G'day folks

Trying to find without much luck some info on my GGG Grandmother Sarah CORKE born abt 1785 possibly in Norfolk.

Sarah CORKE married Samuel GRICE in 1806 in Smallburgh, Norfolk, England in 1808. I can only find one child from this marriage, Ann GRICE born in 1808.

Any info on the GRICE or CORKE families would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards
Tern

Hi

Have you considered this christening record on freeREG

Sarah KIRK chr. 25 Sep 1785 St Bartholemew, Sloley.

Father: Robert KIRK
Mother: Mary CORKE

Sloley is only a couple of miles from Smallburgh, and Kirk/Corke are quite similar sounding

Familysearch has a baptism for Sarah Cork at Hickling in Norfolk in 1782. Parents William and Elizabeth. May be worth a closer look.
