Family History

My ancestor was born there in 1793 and worked on the land. he then walked down to Barham where he met and married his wife. A couple of years ago I visited Occold and wandered the same streets he probably walked. At that time the Beacontrere Arms was still open and I enjoyed a meal there - there had been a pub there from 1600s so my ancestor didn't have to go thirsty!!
