Help please Jesse & Rebecca HILL (nee COOKE)

[JohnSueP]

Could I please have a bit of help in trying to trace the father of Jesse Hill.  He was born in 1782 (+- 3 years) and died 24/8/1870.  He married Rebecca Cooke (don't know when) and they had 9 children ( have all those).  Jesse was recorded in the 1841 census as living in Wickham Market and was shown as Blacksmith and Parish Clerk.  I'm not sure if he was born there.
I think I have found 2 of his brothers, Thomas Hill who married Sarah (nee Smith), but don't know dob, also David Hill who married Biddy again don't know any other details.
I am quite sure that Jesse Hill's parents had more then 3 boys as the Hill family (like many others at the time) seem to reach nearly double figures, so there must be more around, but I need to find Jesse's parents name.
I live in Portugal and I plan to visit the records office, but it wont be till next year, so any help right now would be appreciated.
Many thanks
John

Thank you for that information.  I have to presume that Jesse's father came from Easton.  The date of David and Biddy's marrage ties in with the birth of their first daughter (Joanna Hill on 21/6/1827)

In Family History, you can't presume anything as this can lead you down the wrong path. 

Easton would be a good place to start for finding a baptism for Jesse. 

[JohnSueP]

You are right.  But I will start there.  Thanks

Just to add to Sue's findings

White's 1844 - Wickham Market  Market Hill

He is also noted as being a parish clerk and a whitesmith.

Also David Hill on Market Hill as a cabinet maker.
