John NUNN - Help Please
« on: Sunday 09 August 09 00:50 BST (UK) »
Hi,I'm wondering if anyone can help me find information on my great great great grandad john nunn.According to the 1881 census records he was born about 1851 in yaxley suffolk but I have been unable to find any other trace of him before this time.He married  joanna clarke (born abt 1851 wenhaston suffolk) on 17th nov 1875 in beccles suffolk and according to their marraige certificate johns father was also named john nunn and his occupation was a miller like his son.If anyone can offer any suggestions to solving this puzzle I would be very grateful.

Hi

The IGI had an extracted birth record of a John  Arthur William Nunn
ch.31.8.1851 Wickham Skeith, Suffolk.

father john... mother Elizabeth.

According to Genuki, from 1837 both Wickham Skeith and Yaxtley were townships or parishes in Hartismere reg. dist.

I am not familar with the county but on the map they are fairly  close together.


Maybe he is down on other census's as Arthur or William   :-\

I also came across this family and thought it was a good possibility but a descendant of one of the daughters saw my tree on ancestry and claims my john nunn and this family are not related.

Dont take anything a gospel until you can either check or prove it yourself, she may be wrong.

Must go now, way past my bedtime here in the UK.

Will have another scout around tomorrow if no one else had found him, good luck.
