I am stuck not being able to go back further than 28th May 1768 with the marriage of

John Bunnett to Rachel Burlingham

It states in the church records  that John was from Horstead

NB the one one "T"  Bunnet

When they had children they have all been recorded with two  "T's"

Rachel is recorded as been buried in Holt 1814 age 84 with a baptism in 1734 which should be 1830 ?

Need to verify this !

and note  Robert who is also a witness to her marriage could be father or Brother as both around

A John Bunnett died in 1829 age 83 buried in Holt

which ties up with a John Bunnet NB only one "T" as in marriage records

to may be John born 1715-1790 and Anne Starling from Saxthorpe in 1745/6 Saxthorpe. The fly in the ointment is the the marriage record says John of Horstead Parish

which is 20 miles from Holt could have been working\living there ? But Saxthorpe and Sister village Corpusty is only

About 6 miles south of Holt

John Bunnett born 1715-1790 is the son of Luke Bunnet 1690-1764 and Philippa Stratton
 

 

Is there any connection ?

 

Please email me, thanks
