Frost Bradfield St Clare

[kmdryd]

I am trying to find the birth/bap of Thomas Frost and also his parents.    He married Susan Baker 29.10.1743 Brad. St Clare and also would love to know the names of their children.   The only child of theirs that I know is John Frost bap. 22.12.1750.  who is my 4x great grandfather.

Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you
Regards Kathleen

I would suggest Thomas was the Thomas Frost bp.10/8/1718 Little Whelnetham, Suffolk, son of John and Esther - LW is just due north of Bradfield St. Clare.  Can't see any further evidence of a Thomas in LW either.   Siblings are: John bp.13/12/1713, Elizabeth bp.8/1/1716, Richard bp.11/2/1722 and William bp.20/9/1724.

All on familysearch.

Thank you Annette.   I am sure these are my Frosts.  Is there any way of finding the marriage between John  Frost  and Esther?

I am thrilled that you have found another generation on my Frost side.  My maiden name was Frost  and John and Esther would be my gx6 great  grandparents.  I wish my dad was alive so I could share this with him.  He would have been as thrilled as I am.

A John Frost married a Hester Brooke 20/12/1712 Bradfield Combust, Suffolk.  (Hester/Esther interchangeable in old records plus this fits exactly with the first child being born the following year).

Again, this marriage is on familysearch.   This is a free site and should be one of the first places to check when looking for older events.   Do you not use it?

Dear Annette.  Thank you for the marriage date.   I have lost the link to Family Search.   Too many computer problems.   Can I please ask if you could send me the link?  I am not computer literate and sometimes find it hard to do simple things.
Thank you for your Help.

Hi Kathleen,

I'm sure Annette7 will respond, but in the meantime, if you enter the following link (copy & paste) it into your browser, it should take you to the FamilySearch.org site.

In this case you might see other "John Frost" marriages. Not all are yours but there maybe other connections.

If you play around a little like leaving out first names and/or  change the dates you might get other info.
You can also search the life events on the left side by choosing births, deaths and spouses.

Hope this helps you on your way.
