Claire,have not been able to find your TAYLORS,have looked St Margaret and St Andrew Norwich,some of the pages almost impossible to read.Did find a few other Taylors,if you want the details email me direct. Vanessa,no SHEPPARDS living High st, Kings Lynn,but there are hundreds of pages for Kings Lynn and have not looked at all yet. Will let you both know if I find anything in the future. Best wishes, Liz.

Elizabeth, thank you for very kind offer. May I add another request (no hurry, when you have time): Charles Sheppard 29, probably a tailor and possibly at 115 High Street, Kings Lynn. Many, many thanks.

Hi I have looked on the 1851 census for you. No luck on the birth county - sorry! The CD just says birthplace ----IRE. I spose that could mean the original was unreadable. Perhaps if you could get a look at a scan of the original you may be able to decipher it. Regards Sally, Coventry
