Hi Ann
I'm afraid I don't have Elizabeth Catchpoles parents at present !
As I'm sure you are aware ...... the Catchpoles of Barnham often used the
same names though generations. There are several Elizabeth Catchpoles and
linking them with the correct parents has been a bit of a task.
I have a photocopy of the original marriage entry of Robert and Elizabeth..
No fathers are entered.
Elizabeth is entered as ELIZA CATCHPOLE, spinster, they were both of this
parish (Barnham)and married by banns. The witnesses were George Belsham and
Edmund Banham......Edmund was the parish clerk for Barnham for many years,
and is entered on many of the Catchpole and Belsham marriages as a witness.
I believe Eliza signed the married register herself as the writing is
different from the rectors (J T Burt )
Sorry I can't answer your query , however if I do find the answer I will let
you know.
Regards

Subject: [CATCHPOLE-UK] Elizabeth CATCHPOLE - Robert BELSHAM
Could someone on the list be able to help me with this question. They may
have the information on their family tree.
I have a Elizabeth CATCHPOLE that married Robert BELSHAM 1806-1894
Barnham,
Suffolk. He married Elizabeth on the 16th October 1830 Barnham,
Suffolk.
Can anyone tell me who the parents are of this Elizabeth.
With thanks
