Hello Everyone

Reposting interests after a spell off the list.

Anything about Leists around the Depwade district would be lovely.

My Zachariah LEIST was born around 1811 in Rushall and I am unable to find a date of death for him short of knowing he died before 1876 when he was noted as deceased on his son's marriage certificate.
If some one has acess to the Pulham St. Mary the Virgin monumental incscriptions or indeed is able to visit there and have a look for him for me I would be forever grateful.

His wife was Maria RICHES born 1815 in Pulham. I know even less about her expect she lived a very long life.....still going on the 1901 Census!! I suspect however that she would have been buried with her husband eventually.

The family lived around the Pulham St. Mary area with some children drifting to Suffolk, Kent and New Zealand (my connection).

Any info gratefully recieved.
