Hello Redroger
My main Hancock line is an Elizabeth Hancock, bn in 1797 in Swaffham Bulbeck.  I have her parents listed as Benjamin Hancock and Hannh Adams, I don't know yet if they had any other children or if they were from SB or elsewhere, but I'm just about to order the PR for the village as I have a lot of people to track down in this area, and that may tell me a different story to what I believe!  I have a number of families from the area (SB, Bottisham, Horningsea, Lode and Stow cum Quy) who seem to move between these local villages every couple of generations, so I'm hoping the PR will help out.

Have you come across a Benjamin Hancock at all in your research?

Regards,
Brenda

Hello again Brenda,  I dont know if you have had any luck with siblings of Elizabeth, I have found a James bpt 15 Dec 1776, another James bpt 20 Aug 1780, William bpt 26 Jan 1783. Jno? (poss John) bpt 9 Jan 1785, Another William bpt 18 Mar 1787, Thomas bpt 29 Jun 1789, Charles bpt 13 Nov 1791, Martha bpt 12 Jan 1794, Robert (surname spelt Handcock, but correct parents) bpt 8 May 1796 and the Elizabeth you already have

These all come from the Parish Register for St Marys SB

Hello Keith
I think half of my husbands family came from Swaffham Bulbeck!  I'm probably going to have to get the Parish Records on cd from the Cambridgeshire FHS, it's going to be very helpful.

Mt first Livett in the village is John, bn 1797 d1879, he married Elizabeth Skeel and they had 9 children, I've traced some marriages etc for his children but he's my starting point.  You can also send me a message or an email if you'd like to swap info, or just reply here.

Regards,
Brenda

Hi Brenda,Thanks for that info, it seems to confirm what I already had.  I am a John's GG Grandson. I think Johns father was James Levit bn Abt 1758 cant find a death for him yet, he I believe was married to an Elizabeth Fabb (1751-1824) so they were my GGG Grandparents. It looks like his father (my GGGG Grandfather) was another James Levit cant find any dates for him yet though and he was married to Frances Root(e) I think  they married in 1750 in SB.

I dont know if any of this is of use to you at all.
I have a copy of the Parish Records on CD if I can be of any help in your search.

Regards
Keith
