Title: William Lock/Amy Atkins. Tunstead, Norfolk c.1715
Post by: Scottleneveu on Friday 06 March 15 19:20 GMT (UK)

I'm looking for any information on a William Lock and an Amy Atkins. They married in 1733 in Tunstead, Norfolk. I think that William may have passed away in 1785 possibly in Tunstead. It says that they was born born before 1715. They had a son Stephen lock who was born in 1733 in Tunstead, Norfolk. I'd live to see if I could find out the names of their parents, somebody did contact me once and said that possibly William or Possibly Williams parents could've been from Cornwall, but I can't remember what it was exactly now and at the time I couldn't back it up.
I hope to hear from you
Scott

Hello and thank you for your interest in my post :)

I'm not sure if they moved for work as I haven't been able to find anything on them at all. I presume thats what happened but I haven't found anything to back this up or even found where he would've went  ???

All the best,

Scott

These people are direct ancestors of mine but I'm afraid I don't have any information earlier than their marriage.  Stephen married in Woodbastwick in 1756 and died there in 1811.
