To everyone on the List who strives your years with little or no success.....
do keep at it .Persistence pays off eventually.
I want to publically thank a number of people on this list and at the SFHS for some
fantastic help-
ALL OF WHICH HAPPENED IN APRIL:
-I received a hand drawn chart of all the gravestones in SE corner at St Marys.
-I found the burial location at St Marys Woodbridge of my ggg gparents
even though the stone is gone.
-I got a copy of a portrait of my 8xg uncle from the Ipswich Museum
-I got photos of MI inscriptions of my 9 and10 x ggparents at St Nicholas
Church Hintlesham
-I got access to the current owners of a house where my 8xggparents lived
circa 1700
-I received copies of birth/death and land records for 2 branches of my family
from 1700-1800
-I got an original 1790 'litho' of my 4xggfather from a church in London
- I got copies of 4 wills from the 1700-1825 period
-found the ggg gson of the witnesses at my ggg gparents wedding in 1816
-found 2 new surnames of 18thC born brides that I had been searching for forever.

All of the above happened solely because of the kindness of people like:
Ken F/ Angela B/Estelle W/Ken Phillips/Don Budds/the Hitchcock&Herd families/
Margaret Barfield/D&D Lloyd/ Margaret L/Mike Burnham/Richard Stonelake/John Versey/and
Geraldine G / Steve K / Mary G ...
