Hi Ian
I found on the IGI, Sarah's marriage to Woodward Bidwell and Woodward's birth and his parents, but I wondered where you obtained the information on Sarah's father, as I could find no Leonard who married in the Thetford area or a birth for Sarah.
Because Thetford is close to the border with Suffolk and not far from Cambridge, it is quite possible that there may be some connection with our families.
I have a Richard Shelford who was baptised at Little Shelford Cambridgeshire on 8/10/1682 son of Richard Shelford & Sara, but I have been unable to get back further. I think they may hace come from Essex or Suffolk or even Hertfordshire.
I will let you know if I discover any more information.
Regards
David Taylor
