Thanks Glen - I'll have a look in the library tomorrow - On his marriage the
Vicar, a Dudley Black" has written "both of Ludham" Would I be correct in
thinking that means that Robert MYHILL has lived in Ludham for some time -
but not necessarily been born there?

The birth date I'm getting from the record of his death - aged 70 - but I
suspect that everyone tends to add a little at the end! So a later birth
would perhaps make sense.

All the best

Richard

The IGI has an entry for ROBERT MYHILL baptised at Catfield on 5 Nov 1731,
son of
William Myhill and Mary. Catfield is literally the next village to Ludham.

I should point out, though, that this is a private LDS submission and
therefore possibly
not entirely reliable.
