ooo Thanks Merry!!
I had never been to FreeReg before I found another one on there too Parson's cousin: Martha Parson Baker 1844 her father was John Sales Baker, who must be Charles's brother (I didn't have his middle name) John & Charles were sons of John Baker & Harriet Sales The next enigma will be to find out where the 'Parson' bit comes from and also the 'Custance' bit ....

Searching for a John Sales Baker sounds a lot easier than a John Baker! lol
Custance was a well-off Norfolk family, so good luck! lol

John Baker was born in England, and died date unknown. He married Priscilla Custance in England, daughter of Adam Custance and Elizabeth Parson.
Priscilla Custance, b. 1743, Holt, England, d. Dec 1801, England. For more information visit: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com.../UHP-1033.html From Holt Registers: 1801 : Priscilla wife of John Baker late Priscilla Custance was buried Dec 3rd aged 68 On 18 Apr 1802 John Baker, widower, married Bridget Framlingham at Blakeney - the same John ? And I just located this Holt St Andrew Parish Registers 28 Sep 1760 By License John BAKER of Wells Widower Priscilla CUSTANCE of Holt Single Woman Witnesses Ad CUSTANCE Wm CUSTANCE Also found the following baptisms for children of John & Priscilla. Wells, Norfolk, Baptism Register (one of the best registers I have ever had the pleasure of reading) 07 Aug 1761 BAKER William 21 Jul 1762 BAKER Elizabth 30 Oct 1763 Baker Anna Maria 18 Mar 1765 BAKER Margaret Nothing more in Wells in the following 10 years but the baptisms of four children to a John & Priscilla Baker, at Yarmouth St Nicholas, on FreeReg, may (or may not) be relevant 1772 BAKER Jno 1773 BAKER Adam 1775 BAKER John 1777 BAKER Susanna LDS/Familysearch has the marriage of what appears to be Parson Custance Baker's parents (cross checked against both individuals) 15 JUL 1841 Saint James, Westminster, London, England Charles Baker & Jane Lambourn (father Richard Lambourn) Jane Lambourn & Charles Baker (father John Baker) GRO Marriage Ref (from FreeBMD) 1841, Sep, Lambourn, St Jas Westr, 1, 112 1841, Sep, Baker, St Jas Westr, 1, 112 As the 1851 census of Holt gives Jane's age as 37 and her birthplace as Ludgershall, Bucks she is probably the (LDS again) Jane Lamborn Baptised 30 JAN 1814 Ludgershall, Buckingham, England Parents Richard & Elisabeth Charles' age in 1851 was given as 39, and his birthplace as Holt. A quick check of the registers found Charles son of John Barker and Harriet his wife late Harriett Sales was born April 11 privately baptised April 12 and rec'd into the church Jun 23 1812. John Baker & Harriett Sales had married at Holt on 18 Dec 1806. Both were single and the witnesses were Charles Sales and Margaret Baker and Sarah Scott. FreeReg has four more children of John & Harriett 24 Dec 1813 BAKER Anna Maria 29 Jul 1815 BAKER Anne 02 Nov 1816 BAKER Margaret 12 Jul 1818 BAKER Frances FreeReg again 40 year old Harriett Baker was buried at Holt, on 9 July 1821 As for John Baker --- He's all yours!!!!!!!!

Glad I could be of assistance. We would appear to be related.
The "Custance of Bolton Sands" site has the family of Adam Custance and Susan Hollenpriest with one child missing, Robert Custance, the one I'm descended from. It was his brother Adam who married Elizabeth Parsons. So far I've not got any Eastaughs in my own family, but you never know.

Problem solved
John Barker and Priscilla Custance are last seen in Wells at the baptism of daughter Margaret in 1765. No idea where they were from 1765-1772, when they turn up in Yarmouth and have four children baptised at St Nicholas (FreeReg). Bapt 1772 BAKER Jno Bapt 1773 BAKER Adam Bapt 1775 BAKER John Bapt 1777 BAKER Susanna John Baker bapt Yarmouth 1775 marries Harriett Sales in Holt, in 1806, & had nine children baptised in Holt 1807 Harriett 1809 John Sales 1811 Mary Anne 1812 Charles 1813 Anna Maria 1815 Anne 1816 Margarett 1818 Frances 1820 Henry Harriett dies in Holt in 1820 In 1851 in Lakenham, Norwich we have John BAKER Head Widower 76 Retired Ironmonger born Yarmouth Mary A BAKER Daur Single 40 Annuitant born Holt Sarah WHITE Serv Single 15 Servant born Mattishall We now appear to have a confirmed link between Custance, Parson and Baker It's 4:25 AM and I'm now going to bed Goodnight all
