When he married, John Jarvis, who was illiterate, was shown as a single man of Blakeney.
His children were Mary (bp a fortnight after the wedding), William, Richard, Matthew, Hannah, Susan and three Johns.
His in-laws were William and Hannah.
There is a John Jarvis bp 7 Feb 1750/1 in Blakeney, son of Matthew and Sarah. They were married in Holt.
I suspect John was actually the son of Richard Jarvis and Alice nee Fisher. They married in Cley in 1753 but came from Bayfield. They had children Ann 1754, Wiveton, Mary 1755, Blakeney and Matthew & William in Field Dalling from 1765. John would fit neatly into that ten year gap.
