Can anyone find out for me if a Samuel Norris born 1756 had any children? Samuel Norris came from Downton Wiltshire or Deverill Kingston Wiltshire [ not sure if he even married. [ i no this is a really hard one sorry to be a bother]. Oh I do know his father was William Norris born 1725 and his mother was Rebecca Doman born 1721.
