John Gathercole, 1707 E Dereham, Norfolk
We have traced my husband's family tree back to a John & Elizabeth Gathercole arriving in Mattishall, Norfolk, England from East Dereham, Norfolk 6th Oct 1707. Quakers. John buried 1713. Can anyone take us back further than this - e.g. birth or marriage date for John - or information on his parents?
Others may be interested in descendents of this couple. Our line stayed in Mattishall until 1850's when they moved to Cartmel area of Cumbria. Two transpored to Australia Richmond / Hobart): Rice in 1831 on the Proteus & Richard in 1837 on the Elphinstone.
