Hello John

Other than a year, which I assume could be her approx birth year you haven't given us much to go on :)

From the Suffolk marriage Index I can see an Ann Sparrow marrying Henry Sones 17 Jun 1816 at Horham or a much later one in 1836 at Chediston to James Crisp.

Do either of these fit with what you have?  Lots of Sparrow families in Suffolk if you can narrow it down a bit it would be very helpful.

Hi, sorry about that, I think she wed a Nathanial Taylor 1818, Little Cornard,Parva, Suffolk, they had a daughter Ann Hannah Taylor born 1818. I am not 100% about it though, that is why I don`t give out too much in case it is not correct.

Thanks again

John

It does help, John, if you give us as much info as you have; that way it saves us wasting time trying to find things that you already know.  Sparrow is not an uncommon name in Suffolk.  Indeed, the Ancient House in Ipswich was originally known, if my memory serves me correctly, as Sparrow's House since it was built by a member of the Sparrow(e) family.

Coming a bit late to this, as I have only just joined this forum!

Ann (or Anne) Sparrow, daughter of Newman Sparrow and his wife Sarah (late Constable) was baptised at Little Cornard on 26th October 1794. It seems very likely that she was the one who married Nathaniel Taylor (of Great Cornard) at Little Cornard on 9th February 1818. I had not picked that one up in my researches into Suffolk Sparrows. My branch moved to Surrey in the 1860s.

Thanks for that Mohican, I am interested in learning more about the Sparrows House that you mentioned, & of course the Sparrow family.

Thanks again

Wait, there's a bit more! I also have the baptisms for that part of Suffolk, and I can say that the marriage is definite because I have seen the list of children, and the eldest was named Newman William Taylor - Ann's father was Newman Sparrow. Also interesting that when Newman Sparrow died, he was called a gentleman, and in the baptism register Nathaniel Taylor is twice described as a gentleman, several times as a farmer, and once as a husbandman. Clearly neither man was a mere "ag.lab.", though gentleman was probably stretching things a bit.
