I have just discovered your correspondence with my son Roger .
I have found no connection with the Hereford family and my branch in Suffolk .Various spellings go back to the 1500's . Warren was born 1773 in Bacton Suffolk . He had 2 sons-Robert
(b) 1812 and Frederick (b) 1803 . The latter was a Cordwainer
and had 13 children , most dying young . Of these Joseph Elijah
emigrated to Lafayette , Indiana in 1870 & became a lawyer.
Robert , married 3 times , last to Mary Ann Brooks having 10
children . He lived in Hopton & was a veterinary surgeon . In 1870
his sons George J & John Middleton also settled in Lafayette
becoming a Federal Judge & Shoe merchant . In 1881, another son, Joseph Brooks ( a butcher ) emigrated to Kaufman, Texas.
Another son William Frost E may also have emigrated at the same time but returned in about 3 years( mystery here ),married
Sarah Fisher & settled at Mill Pond Farm in S. Lopham, Norfolk,
raising 9 children .My father was Harold Frank E . I was the only male of th next generation . We
are in touch with several descendants in the U S A .
I would appreciate a tree of the Suffolk family
