1772: Jan 9 - Acknowledgement
of Settlement from Mattishall Bergh for Thomas Cole
and Ann his wife. Witnesses; Sam Howlet, Joseph
Gunton. Jas Kerr Churchwarden. William Rix
Overseer. JPs A Wodehouse, L Buxton
It appears that they lived in Mattishall
Burgh before settling in Mattishall. There is a document
(now in the Norfolk Record Office) called an Acknowledgement
of Settlement which was issued by the officials of Mattishall
Bergh to the Overseers of Mattishall on 9th January 1772.
This meant that if by any chance THOMAS and ANNE COLE fell
chargeable on the Parish through illness or unemployment,
the Overseer of Mattishall Bergh would take responsibility
for their maintenance.
1800: Thomas
Cole a Labourer died and was buried on Mar 15th
at All Saints Churchyard Mattishall -
Thomas would heve been about 62
1833: May 19 - Burial at
St Peter's Churchyard Mattishall Burgh - Entry 60
Ann Cole age 94 (1739) of Mattishall Burgh |
ANNE COLE
- born about 1775
Daughter of Thomas Cole (1738) and his wife Ann Harvey
|
1775: Sep 10 –
Baptism at All Saints Church Mattishall
Anne Cole daughter of
Thomas Cole and his wife Anne
Apart from her own baptism record very little
is known about Anne, she next appears at East Dereham where
on Wedesday May 15th 1805 she has he son William baptised
at St Nicholas Church which is at the bottom of Church Stree
in the centre of the town. It is not known if other family
member were present as they were never included on these records.
The entry before was on the 12th, the one following was on
the 16th, making Ann's the only baptism of that day.
The next record sadly is Ann's
burial record as she died only 18 weeks after giving birth
to her son. She was buried on Thursday September 19th 1805
in St Nicholas Churchyard. No cause of death is mentioned.
Anne left an infant son who we find was brought back to Mattishall,
we would assume by Ann's sisters and mother where he rained
for the rest of his life. His decendants give us most of the
Cole's that we have documented in Mattishall's recent history
and memories. William's story can be follow in the next record
down. WILLIAM HARDEY COLE 1805.
Ann died
when William was only a few weeks old
1805: Sep 19 – Burial at St Nicholas
Church East Dereham
Ann Cole a single women

and Sarah to be brought up
William was baptised again this time the name 'Hardy' is used
which could be the name of William's father.

Garner and Mildred(Amelia) Beckham. In
the census records Elizabeth was recorded as being
born 1856 at Hardingham Norfolk although no record
has been found for that time. However at here death
in 1898 she is recorded as being 46 which could
mean that Elizaberth Ireland Garner born
in the March quarter of 1852 could be her. Elizabeth's
father was landlord of the Bird in Hand Inn from
1870 -75. In 1881 Robert Cole age 29 was
living at 3 Dunmar Green Hardingham where he was
a Farm Labourer, Elizabeth was 26. It appears the
couple had spent some time in Lingacre and Guisborough,
Yorkshire as three of their children were born there,
George 7, Robert, 5 and William 3, Laura age 1 was
born at Hardingham. In the June quarter of 1898

Sarah
Cole was born about 1779 at Mattishall –
no baptism record found

32 Sarah Cole gave birth to a son which she named Stephen

Son of Robert Beeston and his wife Philippa Withers
[they married Feb 20th 1776 at St Andrews Church Attlebridge

For some reason Stephen was baptised

married, maybe he was already married although no record has
been found of that fact.
1811: Dec 14 – Barstardy Order was

for a male child born to Sarah Cole
a single woman on Sep 16th 1810. Robert to pay 13 shillings

Notes for Benjamin Huggins:
Benjamin Huggins was listed in Mattishall Poor Rate
Books as renting a cottage belonging to the Parish almost
up to the time of his death in 1845. At the end, they were
living in one of the Parish Town Houses (cottages where poor
people were accommodated) but Benjamin Huggins actually
died at Gressenhall and probably was buried there. It is recorded
that his coffin cost 11 shillings.

Margaret Anne Cole – Daughter of Stephen
Cole a Shoemaker and his wife Sarah
Carr
In 1851 Margaret was an 18 year old Servant Nurse
for Philip Case a Chemist and Druggist and
his wife Emily nee Taylor of Snendors Yard
Colegate Norwich. We assume looking after their three
children. Emily was born Emily Margaret Taylor
the daughter of William Taylor Gentleman and
Land Owner of Mattishall Burgh and his wife Lydia
Wright. As the Taylor and Cole families were virtually
neighbors back at Mattishall Margaret would have been
known to them. In the Dec quarter of 1861 Margaret
Ann Cole married George John Want at Mitford.
George a 19 year old Shoe Maker born at St Faiths
Norwich, the son of James Want a General Weaver
and his wife Martha. In 1871 we find Margaret and
George, George now John George Want were living
at Constitution Place Norwich where he is recorded
as not only a Clicker but a Local Primitive Methodist
Preacher. Staying with them is Margaret's father (see
1871 census below). In 1881 Margaret now age 48 was
living on the Main Road at Sprowston, Close to Denmark

In 1901 George now age 59 was an Insurance Agent,
Margaret was 68 and they were still living at 6 Knowsley
Road.
Margaret Ann Want nee Cole died in December
quarter of 1908 age 76. We find George now a widower,
in 1911 was living with his daughter Laura Palmer
nee Want at 44 Guernsey Road Norwich (the other
side of Sprowston Road from Knowsley Road) where he
is a 69 year old Insurance Agent. George John Want

Hall Morning Thorpe, the hall was owned by the Irby
family but at this time it was empty with only the

1947.
Elizabeth married Richard Brereton in
the Jun quarter of 1856 at Norwich. Richard was baptised

had three children, Richard Robert 4, George Henry
2 and Walter James 1 month.
In the Mar quarter of 1864 Walter James Brereton
died, he would have been about 3. In the same quarter
his brother George Henry Brereton also died
he would have been about 5.
In 1867 at the young age of 33 Elizabeth Brereton
nee Cole died at Norwich in Dec quarter. However
we find in the 1871 census Elizabeth and Richard had
had another child together, Anna (Elizabeth Anna)
Brereton born in the Jun quarter of 1863 at Norwich.
Richard remarried to Elizabeth Bush of North
Tuddenham in the Jun quarter of 1868, she was born
on April 3rd 1839 the daughter of Edward Bush
a Labourer and his wife Elizabeth Keeler. In
1871 were living in Belvoir Street Norwich.
In 1881 Elizabeth's daughter,
Anna was a Cook and Servant for William Howard
Dakins a Tea Dealer and Town Councillor at 2 Chester
Place Heigham, Norwich. Richard Robert was still with
his father at Eagle Walk Heigham working as a 24 year
old Carpenter. In 1901 Anna age 37 was living with
her father, Richard age 68 a Carpenter living on his

[3] 1840 – Sarah Anne Cole
- no baptism record found
Sarah gave birth to an illegitimate son in
1856 which she named Charles
Edwards Cole – Baptised on Jun 29th 1856
at All Saints Church Mattishall – Entry 473
- More on Charles below....
In 1861 Sarah was a 21 year old House Servant
for Philip Case a 47 year old Oil Cake And
Manure Merchant at Heigham Norwich. Sarah had taken
the place of her sister Elizabeth (1832) above. Philip's
wife is Emily Margaret Case nee Taylor from
Mattishall Burgh (details above). In the December
quarter of 1866 Sarah Ann Cole married William
Carr a Farm Labourer at Mitford. In 1871 they
had no children and were living at Low Road Mattishall
Burgh, living each side of them were Sarah's two cousin
James Cole (1831) and Christmas Cole
(1835). In 1874 Sarah and William had a daughter Lilian
Carr, she was baptised at St Peter's Church Mattishall
Bugh on May 24th 1874 - Entry 408. Sarah Ann Carr
nee Cole died in September quarter of 1877 aged just

In the March quarter of 1881 William remarried to
Sarah White, Sarah had been living near by
near St Peter's church, the daughter of the late John
White a small Farmer and his widow Susan. Lilian
a 7 year old Scholar was living near by with Francis
Edwards a Farm Labourer and his wife Charlotte

[4] 1842 – George Cole
- no baptism record found
In the Dec quarter of 1864 at Mitford George
Cole married Anna Norton. Anna was the
daughter of Matthew Norton (1812) and Emily
Vassar - for more on the Norton Family click HERE.
In 1871 they were living at Church Lane, St Clements,
Norwich where George age was a 29 year old Shoe Clicker,
Anna was 28 and they had a daughter Matilda 3, who
was born at Sprowston. Matilda was baptised at a Primitive
Methodist Church in Norwich on October 12th 1868.
We would wonder if George's sister Elizabeth's husband
being a Methodist Local Preacher had anything to do
with the service. In 1881 the family had increased
by two with Albert Henry age 9 and Florence Catherine
3, they were now living at Fleece Yard, St Edmunds,
Nowich where George was a Boot & Shoe Warehouseman.
In 1891 George and Anna had moved to 1 Afghan Place,
Norwich. George was a Shoemaker, Martilda and Florence
were Shoe Machinists and Albert a Grocers Assistant.
By 1901 Geroge and family had moved to 50 Silver Road
Norwich, a property which was a corner shop with living
accommodation. The proprty was on the corner of Wodehouse
Street. In 1901 Silver Road and all the surrounding
area of terrace houses had only just, or were still
being built.
In the late 1800's there was
a large building program taking place each side of
Magdalen Road leading out of the city centre from
Magdalen Gates up to Sprowston and St Clements. This
included Silver Road as part of the outer boundry
of the estate. 50 Silver Road would have been part
of this, therefore George and family could have been
one of the first families to occupy this property.
We can date these properties by looking at some of
the main building in the area, Just taking the Silver
Road area, the Cygnet public house was openeded in
Oct 1892, George White School was opened in 1903.
Start-rite opened their new factory on Chrome Road
in 1900 which would become the workplace for many
who lived in this area. At the other end of Silver
Road was the new City Tram shed which was the turning
point and housed most of the trams that worked Norwich.
The network was essentially complete and fully operational
by the end of the 1901.
In 1901: George was still recorded as a Shoemaker
(worker) maybe he was employed by Start-rite? Martilda
and Albert were General Shop Keepers living on their
own account. It is noted on the census Albert was
a widower. Albert had married Rosa Sarah Delves
in the Sep quarter of 1896 at Norwich but sadly Rosa
died the following years in the Mar quarter of 1897
at the young age of 26. Florence was still at home
working as a Shoe Machinist. George Cole died
in March quarter of 1906 at Norwich age 63.
Matilda Cole still a single women died in the
Sep quarter of 1909 age 41.
Florence Catherine Cole married Frederick
Thomas Oxbury in the Sep quarter of 1903. In 1911
the couple was living at 47 Glebe Road Norwich where
Frederick was recorded as a 32 year old Certificated
Assistant Teacher Head of Open Art Sch In Summer Months
working for the Norwich Education Committee. With
them were their three children, Harold Frederick 7,
Dorothy Gertrude 4 and Frank Ernest 2. Also was a
live in Gereral Domestic Servant, Happy Drake age
14 from Wicklewood.
In 1911 Albert Henry Cole was Grocer Manager
at the Post Office at Horning, Norfolk, he had remarried
in the Mar qaurter of 1902 to Victoria Kate Thrower
with whom he had at that time two children, Elsie
Violet and Herbet Stanly. Living with them
was his widow mother Anna Cole age 68. Anna
died in the June quarter of 1927 at Smalburgh age
84. Albert remained Post Master till 1945.

James Cole – Son of Stephen
Cole a Shoemaker and his wife Sarah
Carr
James Cole married Sarah Balls in the
Dec quarter of 1864 at Norwich. In 1871 James and
Sarah were living at Constitution Place, Sprowston
Norwich (entry 32) where James was a 26 year old Boot
Riveter, with them were their three children, Hannah
5, Alice 3 and Arthur 11 months together with James's
mother Sarah Cole age 63, his father (Stephen)
was staying with his sister Margaret Want,
entry 46. James and Sarah were also members of the
Methodist church at or just before this time as Hannah
was baptised as Ann Elizabeth Cole on Sep 16th
1865 at a Primitive Methodist Church in Norwich. In
1881 the family was living at Church Street St Clements
Norwich (entry 229) James was a Boot Clicker and Sarah
was also now employed as a Boot Machinist, as was
Anna their daugther, Alice was age 13, Arthur 10,
Frederick 8 and Herbert 5 were all Scholars with Ethel
aged 1.
In 1891 James was a 46 year old Boot Clicker, Sarah
45, Arthur was also now a 20 year old Boot Clicker
and Frederick age 18 likewise. Herbert age 15 was
an Apprentice Clicker, Ethel 11 a Scholar. Their address
was 54 Lawson Road Norwich. They were still at the
same address in 1901, James still a Clicker, Sarah
was looking after the family, Herbert appears to be
known now as Robert 25, Ethel 21, a Drapers Assistant.
Ten years on and they were still at 54 Lawson Road
in 1911 James is now a 66 year old General Shopkeeper
living on his own account, Sarah age 66 is recorded
as having had 6 children 3 of which had died. Lodging
with them was Agnes Elizabeth Miller a Tailoress.
It is not known where James's shop was as 54 Lawson
Road is a middle terrace houses, although the road
is a little diffrent now as only a few doors away
from 54 the houses are modern as the road was bombed
during the Second World War so there could have been
a shop nearby.

Mary Ann Cole – Daughter of Stephen
Cole a Shoemaker and his wife Sarah
Carr
Mary Ann Cole married Stephen Bales
in the Jun quarter of 1867 at St Faiths. Stephen was
born in the Dec quarter of 1844 at Bracondale, Norwich
the son of Benjamin Bales a Gardener of Ingoldisthorpe,
Norfolf and his wife Elizabeth Baldwin of St
James, Norwich.
In 1871 Mary Ann and Stephen were living at 4 Church
Lane St Clements, Norwich where Stephen was a 26 year
old Boot Rivetter and Mary Ann know Marianne was age
24. With them were their three children, Edward 3
who had been born at Mattishall, Edith 1 born at Sprowston
and Elizabeth who was 1 week old. Staying with them
was Caroline Hook a 32 year old Nurse. It was
interesting to find that Stephen's farther (Benjamin)
was living next door to Mary Ann's sister Margaret
Want nee Cole (1832) at Constitution Place and
just a few doors down was he brother James Cole
(1844) and his family. By 1881 they had moved to 1
Bakers Road, St Augustine, Norwich. Stephen was a
37 year old Shoemaker and Marianne was a Machinist
age 34, Edward 13, Edith 11 and Elizabeth 10.
Marianne Bales nee Cole died in the Mar quarter
of 1888 at Norwich she was only 41.
In 1891 Stephen, now a widower was living at 105 Waterloo
Road, Norwich, he was still a Boot Riviter and he
gave his birth place as Butters Hill Lakenham (now
Carrow Hill, Bracondale). With him we find another
daughter (Rosanna Bales) who had been born
just before her mother (Marianne) died in 1885 at
Waterloo Road. Also on the return was his daughter
Edith age 21. Edith had married Thomas William
Cole (no relation) age 22 and a Shoe Clicker.
Thomas was born in 1869 at Norwich the son of Samuel
Cole a Foreman Shoe Machinist from High Bickington,
Devon and his wife Elizabeth Blyth from Norwich.
In 1881 Thomas Cole and his parents had been
living at 28 Bakers Road so Elizabeth and Thomas had
grown up together.
1901 and Stephen had not remarried, he was a 56 year
old Oil Hawker now living at 107 Waterloo Road, with
him was his daughter Rosa age 25 a Tailoress. His
other daughter Edith was also living there with her
husband Thomas Cole, he was a Milk Hawker.
Stephen Bales died in the Jun quarter of 1910
age 65 at Norwich.
After her father died Rosanna
went to work for Rev Richard Wilton a 59 year
old Minister Of United Methodist Church and his wife
Alice Blanche at their home Epworth House, 1a Aylsham
Road Norwich. In 1911 Rosanna Bales was a 26
year old Domestic Servant living at this address with
the Revd, his wife and five children. Records
show Rosanna Bales married in the Sep quarter
of 1912 at Norwich to Alfred Charles Howes
at Norwich. They had a daughter Gladys Eleanor
May Howes in 1913 they were living at 11 Catherine
Wheel Opening, St Augustine Street, Norwich.

It did not take much to be placed
