Hello Howard,
It appears that we are related. I too am a descendant of Richard Walpole and Hester Cole.
Here is some of the information I have on this Walpole line:
[1] Richard Walpole (Jnr) was born in Chulmleigh, Devon 1784 (baptised 4 Nov 1784) to Richard Walpole (Snr) and Mary Priest. He married Hester Cole 21 Dec 1803 in Barton Turf and died 24 April 1865 in Dilham from 'Disease of the Prostate'.
[2] Richard Walpole (Snr) was born 12 Feb 1760 in Smallburgh, Norfolk to Robert Walpole and Sarah Randal. At some point he moved to Devon where he met Mary Priest. They married in Chulmleigh 4 May 1783. Six months later Richard (Jnr) was born in the same parish.
Richard (Snr) moved his family back to Norfolk soon after as a daughter Elizabeth was born in Smallburgh in 1786. Sadly Richard Snr seems to have died a few weeks before she was born.
[3] Robert Walpole was baptised 18 Jan 1723 in Worstead, Norfolk to [4] Nicholas Walpole (written as Whorpill/Wherpill in records) and Mary Smith. He married Sarah Randal 4 Aug 1751 in Smallburgh and was buried 30 Dec 1808 in Smallburgh.
Robert and Sarah had the following children:
Richard (1760)
Mary (1761)
Thomas (1762)
John (1763)
Nicholas (1766)
Sarah (1768)
Frances (1775)
I do have more information, particularly on the Priest line in Devon, so do let me know if there is any information I can share with you.
