Fenns of East Suffolk 1700-1850


This interactive tree comprises the families of everyone with the surname Fenn, Fenne, or Fen that I have been able to find with links to Suffolk during this time period. Many families had connections to the towns of Beccles, Bramfield, Ipswich, Chediston, Coddenham, Glemsford, Felixstowe, Hadleigh, Nayland, Sudbury, Somersham, Westhall, & Woodbridge. Most stayed in Suffolk, but a few have strayed over into Essex, Norfolk, London, or travelled as far as Canada, China & Australia. Some common occupations were carpenters, teachers, innkeepers, clergy, artists or authors.

Please contact me if you recognise someone - I probably have more details or know of a fellow researcher. And please let me know if you think someone is missing by clicking on the E-mail link below.

When the screen starts click on the " [] " toolbar at the top to see the index of people. Move your mouse over the list to see a basic list of dates and places. Be warned that I have not been able to confirm all dates or relationships cited. If I have "calculated" the birth date I probably have recorded a baptism date seperately. Some people may appear twice if I have not (yet) been able to confirm they are the same people. Contact me for more information and I can forward you to the original source.
