    Default John Berry

    First time that I have found this site while I was looking for Berry in Eye.
    I have got the marriage cert of John Berry to Mary Hayward. His father is listed as John Gissing a Farmer.
    I also had got down that there were Potters as his other children.

    I have got down that Sarah Berry had 6 children, I don't know if the father of all of them were John Grissing. as I was only interested in John Berry.
    i have got down that Sarah had 7 siblings and that her parents were William Berry & Dinah Lummis. Two of them were ann b 1792 & Mary 1802

    I have checked Parish registers and found that no father was noted for any of the births and some were noted as base born.

    In my travels I have come across a distant cousin who has taken over some research from her cousin and he had noted that the father of Sarah's children was John Gipping born about 1800. Perhaps he had copies of the children's marriage certificates and it was stated on those. The only person I have found that is remotely like that is John Giping of Eye, Suffolk in the 1851 UK Census. In that, he is married to Ann. If he was married then that may be why Sarah never married her man! Anyway, I would like to find out more about this John Giping/Gipping but cannot find any mention of him anywhere else.

    One thought was that Giping is a transcription error and perhaps it is Gibons or something like that. Can anyone offer any possibilities?

    Many thanks

    I am related to John Gissing. My relations come from Thornham Magna Suffolk, Wickham Skeith, Walpole. I found on The web site called beyond the seas that the trial at suffolk Assizes march 1828 transported : not transported source indistment file date location and victim of offence, along with goods involved and there value, and his co-accused. I can't find out where he went after that. I also found on the Romany Gipsy Connections site: Frederick Gissing Frederick Mary Ann Bc 1865 Theberton Suffolk son Friston. John Gissing Frederick Mary Ann Bc 1867 Theberton Suffolk son Friston. Also a Alfred Berry Bc 1831 Wickham Skeith Suffolk England Head Wickham Skeith Suffolk. Perhaps this John Gissing was a Gipsy, thats why I can't find him. Would like to hear from you. Susan Bellamy now married. A William Berry 1759-1827 married Dinah Lummis 1758-1844 Thornham Magna Suffolk.

Father is Richard Berry. Mary Ann comes from Gt Thornham, Suffolk, and born about 1827.
    On 2 of Hannah Marie's birth certificates of her children her maiden name is Dawson and the others is Berry. They all live at the same address when they were born.
    The only thing I can find is an Anna Marie Berry born 1846 at Eye Union workhouse Suffolk. Mother Mary Ann Berry but no fatheris named. I wonder if this the same people.
    Can anyone help me with this little problem.
    Someone gave me this I hope it helps. Mary Anne Berry B. may 1860 D. January 9 1926 Darsham...Father Henry Berry (George Henry) B. 1827 Wickham Skeith D. 1 December 1897 Wickham skeith. He married Sarah Ann Collings Nov 9 1849 in parish wickham skeith daughter of George Collings and Mary Olliton/Alderton B. April 10 1831 in Wetheringsett suffolk. Sue.
