I am researching my husband's family - Gathercole (Edmund/Elizabeth Ashley). Apparently many generations were born here and several left for America together. We are hoping to find relatives who stayed behind and may have photos or family documentation. Thank you!

I am looking for connections to my WENN ancestry in and around Downham Market. I have found WARDLE WENN and his family living in Downham in 1841. He was born about 1800~ but I can find nothing about him or his parents. I think he may have been born nearby in Wimbotsham or Denver~ but I cannot find anything at all. If anyone can help please email to me

My Gr.Gr.Grandparents lived all their married lives in Magdalen between 1834 and 1901 and brought up a large family there.They are described as agricultural labourers in the censuses.Their names were William HOLMES and Sarah CULLEN. I have an unidentified photo. which I think might be of them taken around 1880. They are outside a cottage called DRIFT COTTAGE.Is there~or was there a cottage of that name in Magdalen.I would love to hear from any one who could help me. I would also love to hear from any HOLMES or CULLEN who still live in the area.
