Hi. I've been looking into the Symonds of Shipdham too. I've got Gulielmi Simonis, son of Arthur, 1639.

The Symonds morphed into Semmens (or at least, my line did) and I can't fill the gap between these early Symonds and my John

Symonds, Shipdham, 1753. Glad of any help

Di.

Yesterday while looking for surname Pigman in the Archdeconry of Norwich I found a Symonds. 

Can't tell you where it was exactly except somewhere in the files of Norwich 1733-1744 on familysearch.org. 

I am looking for variations of American and English version: Pigman / Dutch version: Pigmans French version: Pigmon/Pimond/Pimont/Pymond/Pymon/Piemons and others. 

The name Symonds in script looks incredibly like Pymonds and I have kind of trained my eye for that particular form in the thousands of files I have looked at in French as well as English records.

The Pigman surname is indexed in Old Hunstanton and Norwich but
I haven't found the original file of Norwich, Norfolk - John Pigman m. Sarah Rhodes 16 Oct. 1733 yet.

Has anyone seen Pigman while looking at the Norwich files?

Trying to find Pymond/Pymont/Pigman family in England and Piemond/Pimond/Pimont family in France.
