John my Gudgeons are in Upwell Norfolk in 1784,and they have several using the mothers nee name,for example Eli Porter Gudgeon,
Then there is Mary Gudgeon Means who married Peter Means and went to America.
I feel my Gudgeons moved to Norfolk from either Yorkshire or Bedfordshire.There were brothers in the Upwell District in the the late 1700's,John Gudgeon,Joseph and Christopher.
i don't think they were the first generation as there are one or two others around maybe who moved there first, and were related?
There is no record of their births there, as far as i know.Do you know anything about your Gudgeon namesake?
Did he change his name around on purpose?Usually birth records were correct but the spelling depended on the recorder, and sometimes varies
