Henry & Mary Ramm of Wiveton

Henry Ramm, a son of Henry and Mary, was born around 1724 but no baptism has yet been found.

Mary Ramm, a daughter of James and Margaret, was baptised in Wiveton on 26th September 1722.

On 22nd January 1743/4 a marriage bond was signed by Henry Ramm of Cley, barber, and Luke Ramm of North Walsham, Shoemaker, and on the same day Henry Ramm of Cley and Mary Ramm of Wiveton, both single, were married by licence. Luke was Mary’s elder brother.

Henry and Mary lived in Wiveton for about 12 years before moving to Salthouse and they are known to have had nine children:
