Ribbans/Revans in Norfolk

[ribbo39]

Hi,

Is any one searching for Ribbans/Revans  family ancestors in Norfolk.

Most of my ancestors come from Suffolk but,  in pursuing other ancestors  in Norfolk
I have  found the odd one or two Ribbans's listed mainly in the Norwich parishes.

I haven't found any connection between the two  but feel its more than just a coincidence.

If anyone has any info I would be very pleased if they could share it with me.
