I have been told, but am unable to verify, that my 3g grandfather, William Marchant, was born c1771 to Dinah Marchant, daughter of Richard and Dinah (Bloss) Marchant. This was in Hadleigh, going by later census declarations.
The rumour has it that the father was a John Steventon.
I cannot find any records of this.
Can anyone help with this.
Thanks,
