MADGETT Family

[tricia1]

I am trying to trace a John Madgett who lived in Thrandeston most of his adult life, was buried there.  He was born approximately 1753.

Any help with the Madgetts would be appreciated.

Hi tricia

A volunteer offers lookups from the Thrandeston marriage register 1559-1812 at The Suffolk Surnames List.

Hello!
I'm researching my family tree and in so doing, came across your posting here.  My maiden name is Madgett and the furthest back I have got on the Madgett side is John Madgett who was born in 1753 & died in 1835 in Thrandeston, so I guess it's probably the same line that you're researching. (He married Elizabeth Gibbon).
Do we share a link? Have you found out anything more about him?

Thank you

Hello
I was also born a Madgett and I come from John Madgett born c 1753.
Unfortunately I haven't gone any futher back than this, but it's not without trying.  He just seems not to show up anywhere.

What Madgett are you from?  I would be interested in sharing our information.

Regards
Tricia

Couldn't see any marriages before those times in Thrandeston but will do a larger search later.

Hi Tricia,
As far as I can tell, John Madgett & Elizabeth Gibbon had about 8 children and I am descended from their son George who married Phoebe Cobb. If you PM me, I can share my info wth you.  Likewise, I'd be interested to learn what you know. It's a shame that we can't get back further, especially when it's such an uncommon name, it ought to be easier!
