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.

Hello. Would anyone know of Robert Green born to Robert Green~ a Miller. I believe Robert jr was born in c1801 in Ardleigh as he gave on the 1851 census. Robert Green jr is my great great grandfather. His youngest child was my father's grandmother: Jane Rebekah Green. Robert's 4 children with wife no 2~ Sarah Watkins from Wales~ were all born in Heath Weeley and later went to St Osyth to live before they all seem to have travelled far and wide.**Regards~ Julie

I am interested in finding out about Alfred MARSDEN who was a driver with an Australian Company of Field Engineers during WW1. He married Ivy Kathleen TANNER and gave his address as Brightlingsea~ Colchester. Ivy was a munitions worker. Was there a munitions factory near Colchester during the war? Ivy's address was Knowle~ Bristol so I am curious to know how they would have met. starr2008@dodo.com.au**

Greetings from a direct descendant of the founding family of Raydon~ Suffolk~ England.## Late in the 1800's~ my great-great-grandfather Henry Raydon departed the area of Raydon for the USA in search of a new fortune.## The family moved through the states of Virginia and Kentucky~ settling in Bloomington~ Illinois. Henry Raydon and my grandfather~ Walter Raydon farmed in the area and eventually most of his siblings worked for the local railroad.## This September 6th~ my wife and I journeyed to Raydon and visited the area including St Mary Church to trace genealogy of my family. Finally~ I have located my root of the Raydon Name...## Your community is pleasant and a nice lady living next to the church was helpful.## I would enjoy communicating with anyone from Raydon who may have additional info.## Edwin Arlo Raydon~ Normal~ Illinois~ USA

Alderton John christened 23 March 1783 Langham Essex and John Alderton born 1806 Langham Essex.**I am researching the UK ancestry of my gggrt grand father John Alderton which appears to be a very common name for those days. I have a record of his Australian history but I would like to trace his UK heritage. I have some possible leads but I am unsure if they are the right ones. My gggrt grand father was John Daniel Alderton born 1806? Langham Essex~ on his DC his parents were a John and Elizabeth (Sarah) UNKNOWN surmame. I am wondering if the John Alderton christened on the 23rd of March 1783 in Langham Essex (parents John and Sarah? )was his father. Also if the marriage of a John Alderton in Great Massington Runcton Norfolk in 1783 to Sarah reeder/Reider which corresponds to the christening date of the Langham relative would perhaps be his father. Very confusing yes but if anyone has any possible leads I would greatly appreciate it.**Thankyou Sue Alderton**** **********

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**
