Suffolk Lookup Requests / Re: Fitch
« on: Sunday 06 December 15 15:19 GMT (UK)  »
I want just replying and your latest mails came through. So I need to rewrite this.
This latest information you have given me is extremely useful. I will digest and continue my search from there.
It may be that I need to look at marriage/birth/death certificates.
I see there are some Fitch family trees that go right back to the Fitches and the De Montfitches/ De Montfiquets. Who knows, we may get there!
Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you.
On some public family trees, they list a Robert Fitch as being the father of the Thomas Fitch that was married to Mary.  Also, that Robert was born in 1751.  Is it possible to confirm this? 
This Robert Fitch was married to Frances Adams on 09/09/1749 (although one record says 09/11/1749). I have written down that he was born in 1730...can't remember where that came from.

Thank you.
Your findings agree with some of the public family trees.
I assume that Robert's baptism record is based upon his year of birth (1796)?

Yes, Maria Hockley on Jan 1, 1822 in Long Melford. He died in 1879 in Sudbury.
I think we are correct up until that point.  A little sketchy beyond that.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, it was Reverend Ernest William Fitch, born in Clacton On Sea.

We have Arthur Fitch as being born in Great Bromley, Essex, Elijah Fitch being born in Long Melford, Suffolk (although one record said Mitford, Essex) and Robert Fitch born in Chedburgh, Suffolk.

Thanks again for your help.

Suffolk Lookup Requests / Fitch
« on: Sunday 06 December 15 11:03 GMT (UK)  »
I have just started to research my wife's Fitch family name in Essex and Suffolk.
So far, from census records, I have managed to find Ernest William Fitch 1886 - 1972, Arthur Fitch 1858/9 - ?, Elijah Fitch 1825 - 1898, and Robert Fitch 1796 - 1879.
Although I cannot see the derivation of the following records,  I can see from other family trees:-  Thomas Fitch 1771 - 1835, Thomas Fitch 1751 - ?, and Robert Fitch 1730 - ?.  The trail then seems to stop.
So, any help really appreciated on 1.  Confirming the origin of the family tree records above and 2.  Finding the ancestors of Robert Fitch 1730.
Thank you.

Although  don't want to be led by the hand on this, can you explain how I should search the IGI, please. Is it the FamilySearch.org site I should be looking at? I did put George Nelson in the name search for the UK, but to no avail.
Also, where can I check the baptisms for Ripon around 1779?
Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.

Hi Folks,
Has anyone any suggestions how I can trace the parents of George Nelson, b1779 in Terrington, Yorkshire?
He married Ann (Nanny) Thornbourn on 22/11/1804 (Martinmas week?) in Sheriff Hutton.
Both calvert and myself have come to a standstill on this.
