I am researching my family history~ which leads me back to a woman named Honor~ born 1803 in Stoke Ferry~ who married John Body~ born 1790~ of Gooderstone. I am one of their descendants. So far I have been unable to discover Honor's maiden name - if anyone knows it or can point me in the right direction I would be eternally grateful.

Hi~ my ancestors are David Harris Bennett and Mary Ann Antoinette Turner who set out for Australia in 1852. It's difficult to trace David as there as so many of his name in England in that time. His mother was Elizabeth Harris and father was David Bennett. I believe this David was also from Norfolk but I'm not sure. Can anyone help?

• Hello Donna, Have just started to work back from my gtgtgrandmother Rebecca Bennett who married Thomas Tuddenham in Gooderstone in 1834. I found families of Bennetts in Gooderstone in mid-19th cent (David 1794?-1858 and his kids) but I don't know yet if he is Rebecca's Dad or not. Thanks very much for the pointer re David H. All his bros. came with him to Victoria (on the 'Success') as assisted immigrants. I was really chuffed to find them all. http://www.access.prov.vic.gov.au/public/PROVguides/PROVguide050/PROVguide050.jsp Will now be looking for Bennetts in Oz as well as in Norfolk. Thanks again for the pointer. -- Joan

Hi all~****My husband and I will be traveling to Necton in late April. We are traveling to the UK from Little Rock Arkansas. I am interested in finding information on my 8th great grandfather Eli Nelson who was born in Norfolk~ England in 1615 and emigrated to Westchester~ New York. I have searched through buriel records and have found some Nelson's that were buried in Necton in the 1630's. I believe that Eli Nelson was probably from this town and that his father was buried in Necton. There are no other buriel records for Nelson in that time period in the county of Norfolk. If anyone could help me narrow my search before I get there I would be grateful. Thanks **Jamie

I am tracing my family history and have discovered that a Joseph Butters and his family were living in Gooderstone in 1851. Joseph's son~ Henry Butters~ aged 11 in 1851 eventually moved to live in Lavant~ West Sussex and was the Father of my Grandfather E R Butters. Are there any members of the Butters family still in Gooderstone? I would be interested to know. 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
