Yes, you are right. I recall the name from a brief bit of research I did 20 years ago and then lost. Can't thank you enough. This may be the clue to unlocking more about William.

Keziah is doing such a good job that I hesitate to join in, but:
I have found that John Cornish married Harriet Wilding on 16 Oct 1833 at Shimpling, which probably means she lived there. They would be the couple whose son William has already been found, born in 1835. It looks as if it was this John Cornish who was buried at Stanningfield on 29 April 1897, said to be 83. Harriet was probably the one who was buried there on 27 Feb 1875, said to be 63.
