Hello Duane, Sorry it as taken me a few days to find my way back in to the site. maurice passed on your message.
My Reeve ancestor came from Horningtoft circa 1860. Moving with an Uncle to Nottinghamshire where he married, later moving to Yorkshire. I along with Maurice are trying to find where the family were living in the early 1700's. I am pretty confident of the line back to a Thomas and Catherine who baptised children from 1740.
I have wills from 1640 for Lucy nee Ridgewell,from which we lose the family until 1740,s. The Wills are copywrite of the Norfolk archieve. We have to travel to Norwich, a 4hour journey for me, to view the michro fiche copies there. These are very difficult to read, as the copies were taken from poor documents. My Email is [email protected], interested in how you managed so far. are you UK based?.
