Hi all and Stephen

At this point you need to prove or disprove, that John the son of Robert and
Elizabeth, baptised at Denver and the John the son of Robert and Elizabeth
in the 1851 census at West Dereham are the same person.

I suggest that you check the Downham Market parish register to start with.
You might find that your search will take from the Downham area right up to
King's Lynn. I have found a marriage for James Ladd & Dorcas Waters in 1717
at Wiggenhall St. Mary the Virgin and there are possibly more to be found.

Regards

Alan Gresley
