Well I'm pretty convinced that William Marshall born in 1747 in East Barsham, Norfolk is the one I'm looking for but his parents William Marshal Gowers and Abigail Gowers (Seeker) I can't find on freereg search. I'm interested in finding where and when this next William Marshal Gowers was born and his parents.

strange,
burial's east barsham,
william gowers 1-8-1790.
abigail wife of william 10-3-1789,
noted formerly thacker?
could her surname have been secker not seeker,as secker sound's like thacker or was she married before ?
not sure if these are your rellies but thought i would post the detail's.

no age given for william but abigail's age was 67 making her born c1722 ?
