Hello Everyone,
Sandy,
Jan and
Nick, sorry about the delay in getting back to you…I’ve been working over the weekend. You’ve all been so helpful, I really can’t thank you enough. Sandy, I would love copies…what do you need from me? I suspected many of the family emigrated but knowing exactly who and when is fantastic, thank you.
Jan, I’m still searching!
Nick,
My side of the family MUST fit in here somewhere, we’re from slightly west of Norfolk but so close to Hardley, Lodden etc. After searching a little more, it appears my great, great grandfather was James Carver, born 1861. I believe his father (Jonathan) is the brother of William Carver, born 1826 and who is shown in the family tree on the page you gave me. In fact, the page states that William was a witness at the marriage of Jonathan and Esther in 1856. It seems that brothers Jonathan and James Carver married the sisters, Susan and Esther Cossey. It would be really interesting to know where you fit in…are you a near or distant relative?
Thanks again for your help. Best wishes to all.
Tom Carver
