BELSON in Snettisham?

[Chris Trigg]

I am trying to trace SAMUEL COULTHARD and his wife JANE. His children were born in Downham, Cambs with the earliest one I have found being 1811 and the latest 1823. I would like to try and find the date and place of their marriage, JANE's maiden name (possibly BELSON as this appears as an unusual middle name in sons and grandsons), and when JANE was born/baptised in Snettisham, Norfolk around 1780.

Any information on Norfolk BELSONs gratefully received.

Peter,

Many thanks. Snettisham and North Elmham are about 20 miles apart as the crow flies (but a lot longer by roads in those days!). But it could have been she was born in one place and christened in another due to family reasons, so I'll have to try and do some more research on that possibility. Thanks again for the lead,

Regards

Chris

The Belsons were indeed a large family in Snettisham and they in turn had connections to other local families in the village;

Chilvers, Turner, Potter, but to name a few. My 3x great grandmother was Ann Belson who was born in Snettisham around the 1800's.
