Find Ancestors

Does anyone have access to Yarmouth Norfolk Records. If so would they be so kind as to look up a Christopher Brewer baptised 1776 Yarmouth He has brothers William 1778-1850 and John baptised 1775 I believe his Father c1758 was called John. I am trying to find if he ( Christopher) married and if there were any descendants.
Thanking you In anticipation
Regards George

Thanks Chris Ho I've done as you suggested and found his Mother and Sister were Called Susanna As I have Susanna Daines and John Brewer as his parents I think this is a confirmation Thank You very Much for your time and interest I can now boast of having Relations that fought the Battle of Trafalger and as I live near Portsmouth H.M.S. Victory this comes up quite often
Thanks again .

"Thank You" AnnCardiff for finding Christopher in the first place.

Could anyone please tell me if Christopher Brewer is on the Monument in Gibralter.
