Hi Ozybob

I do not understand the references to Neatishead or Ashmanhaugh. However, if you are looking for descendants of the Covells, then I suggest you look here http://www2.tribalpages.com/tribe/browse?view=70&userid=peapod63&rand=542119211
I found this link through Google.

COVAL(L), COVEL(L), COVIL(L) and other variants of he name, occurs quite frequently, across quite a large area of Norfolk. Rather than trying to connect the strands of the family from Ashmanhaugh, Neatishead, Worstead, etc at the moment - you might do better to get hold of a copy of the parish registers for Felmingham and work through them.

The Parish Register Transcription Society http://prtsoc.org.uk/index.php have a copy of the Felmingham ATs for sale, covering events up to 1812. The NRO may be able to sell you copies of original records on fiches, or if you are anywhere near a mormon church (LDS) centre, you may be able to hire parish records there on film.
