Intrigued by your message. I'm related to the Carder's that come from Ickleton in
south Cambridgshire - about 7 miles from Stapleford. As yet I have not had a chance to
search through the Parish register's and cannot get a direct line back to 1763. I can
get back to Barnabas Carder born in Ickleton in 1825 and it is known that Carder's
have lived in Ickleton since 1596. As you probably know the Carder name originates from
working in the wool trade (combing the wool) and two wool fulling mills are known to have
existed in Ickleton from the 1200's. Hope this may help you.
