I have recently found out I had ancestors who lived at Asslington Hall, back in the mid and late 1800's. I would very much like to locate a photograph of the hall, if one exists. I realise the hall burnt down in 1957, but I thought maybe a resident has an earlier record of it. Fingers crossed, in any case!

I live in Australia, or I would do more hands-on research myself.

Kind regards
Christine

• Hello Christine
  We actually visited Assington Hall yesterday (my daughter's church had an Away Weekend there) This prompted me to research the Hall and in doing so found this link. I'm sure that by now you will have seen this but include it anyway! (I am interested in Family History and my G. Grandparents married in Assington Church)
  Where do you live in Australia? Our son lives in Sydney and cousins in Brisbane.

My family line comes from Monk's Eleigh / Hitchin. I have been able to trace back to Thomas Keeble (born 1730) who married Elizabeth Reynolds (born circa 1730). They married 1762. Does anybody have any information regarding the Keeble name prior to this period ?

My Bixby Ancestor~ Joseph Bixby ( baptised 28 Oct 1621 at Little Waldlingfield~Suffolk was the son of George and Ann (Cole) Bixby. In The Bixby Genealogy I inherited from my Great Aunt Mary Glessner~ Ohio "About 1500 Bekelsby appearsto have been used interchangeably with Bixby. It was so spelled in 1427. The name is first met with in Thorpe Morieux~ a small parish and townshipin Western Suffolk~ where in 1427 we find Walter Bekesby buying land. The next mention of the name is in 1459 in the will at Bury St Edmuncs of Walter Bekesby of Thorpe Moreiux~ who we do not doubt is the same man who was found 32 years before buying land there. He will mention 2 sons~ Robert and Nicholas....The Bixby's of Thorpe Morieux were evedently amongthe more important residents there and were well-to-do yeoman farmersthere" Would love to connect with other Bixby folk. I am planning to visit Suffolk~ East Anglia Sept-Oct 2009.

Dear Polstead Residents**I am looking for any ?Pilbury? relations past or present to complete my family tree as a gift for my mother. **My Great Grandmother ?Esther Pilbury? was born in Polstead in 1883. Her father was ?James Pilbury? born 1850 in Ringshall which is where I reside now. Esther?s Mother was Mary Ann Dyer who was born c1853 in Hadleigh. I believe that Daniel Dyer was her father who may be the 'D Dyer' engraved on the Methodist Chapel in Polstead Heath?? Esther Pilbury had many Brothers~ Sisters~ Aunts and Uncles who lived in Polstead and Polstead Heath. **I have been told by my Uncle that he visited an elderly lady relative around 1952. She lived in a small cottage very close to the Polstead Pond. The Lady gathered water from the pond to use in the cottage~ where inside~ she took my Uncle down a few steps into what he remembers as a walk in pantry where half pigs were hanging. The elderly woman sliced some meat from the hanging pig and proceeded to collect eggs from the chickens outside in the garden. They enjoyed a hearty breakfast of bacon and eggs inside the cottage.**If any of the above seems familiar to you or if you have any information regarding my Pilbury ancestors or their spouses and family to follow~ I would be extremely interested.**Please contact me on 01473 658131 or email soxley790@btinternet.com**I fully appreciate people have very busy lives however any help you can give to assist me on my family tree would be gratefully received. **Best regards**Mrs Sadie Oxley**
