Hi all

Anyone else interested in these families from around the Saints?

I would be pleased to share info.

Is your Burrows ending up in London's East End circa 1881?

Hi

My Burrows family ended up in Norfolk but I am interested in any relations from these origins.

If you are related to this family, please do get back to me.

There were Freestones in Isleham in the 1500s according to the parish registers. That's just over the border into Cambs. There are some there today as well

I have an Elizabeth Burroughs who married into my Strange family at South Elmham All Saints in 1756

Hi Nick & Keabs

The Freestones in Cambridgeshire are earlier than my lot so there is no telling at present if they are related.

The Elizabeth Burroughs who married into the Strange family is almost certainly one of my lot, but with a name like Elizabeth, it is difficult to establish which one she is.  Does she, or her husband mention any other family members in their wills?

I haven't carried out any research on this side of my family for ages now, I really must wake it up again.

Hi, I don't have a will for Elizabeth or her husband, John Strange.  They moved to Denton Norfolk and I believe he does have a will. I have a will for his father but it only mentions his name and I have a will for his brother who is my many times great grandfather.
From her death date she was born around 1724.
I do have the All Saints cd so I will look to see if I can find her baptism.

I do have a lot of Strange info.

I just noticed your interest in Youngman.  I have an Elvina Youngman whose father is Charles.  She married into my Meen family.

Hi Teddy
I have a John Freestone b 1836 Flixton Suffolk who married a Jane Buggs1858 Denton Norfolk.
I have been researching the Buggs family from Denton Norfolk and found they originally came from the Saints area ,Fressingfield ,Metfield and Withersdale Street areas of Suffolk.
Somewhere along the line there is a record of Eliza Burrows marrying into the Buggs family but I have yet to find that elusive peice of paper that i wrote the info on.
