Lyp24 Report 17 Oct 2008 19:31

I am trying to find the parents of John Jerry born c1811 in ?kilham Norfolk. From 1861 onwards he was living in Durham with his wife Susanna Smith who in the same census was listed as born in Walswig, Suffolk.

I cannot find a marriage listed at all.

His surname may be spelt in a variety of different ways, Jery, Gerry, Jeary which doesn't exactly help!

I am now at a loss!!

Is there anyone with any suggestions?

Thankyou

Thankyou Ann

I do have a feeling that the Jeary/Jerry clan may be one of the same, but I just need to find the connection.
