Once again , thanks for all of your help. I have just found a solitary entry in my file that would appear to be the William FREEMAN mentioned in the 1851 census that you kindly looked up for me. I had previously entered his death and burial details which has him dying in 1863, aged 63 years. Now we know to whom he belongs. This would indicate he must have been born around 1799-1800. Single people do sometimes get confused over their age!
From Reepham Churchyard
Freeman, William, no dates, age: 63yr, bur. 24 Apr 1863, yard #1, of Repham
Is anyone able to confirm who John Edward FREEMAN who married Jane MILSON in 1829 in Reepham belongs too? I guess he was born around 1800 too. The family appear to be living around Swinderby Lincoln when their daughter Jane was christened in January 1840. Other children are christened in Asterby, Sibsy, Swinderby and Goulceby
Best regards
