Suffolk Poll Books 1700, 1790
« on: Thursday 24 March 11 17:32 GMT (UK) »
A request for the name REVANS/RIBBANS in Framlingham The family flourished as yeomen in the 16th Century, but declined by the 17th. There may be some remnants still at the beginning of the century. Debenham is also a more remote possiblity.

Many thanks!

Hi Grib

No sign of any REVANS/RIBBANS/Variants in either Framlingham or Debenham I'm afraid. :( This suggests that they were either living in other parishes (sorry my books are place indexed) or they did live there but were not freeholders.

Thanks Ric. Even negative information is useful.
