The following is a copy of the will of Edmund Mortlock of Bradon transcrib ed by June Monteith 31 Mar 2000 at Bury CRO - not sure how he fits in as y et but put this here for safe-keeping; NB: The will was in archaic writing and the clerk was obviously tired, esp ecially at the bottom of the page! He tries hard to spell the same word di fferently. However, I had plenty of time and I don't think anyone would ha ve much better luck with the missing words.

More About ANN MORTLOCK: Christened: 28 December 1697, Brinkley, Cambridge, England. Added 29th January 2007 Just saw your web site so thought I would tell you my connection to the Mortlock family. An Emma Mortlock, born 13 June 1849 in Glemsford, was my Great Grandmother. She married Abraham Oakley Jackson in 1869. My Grandfather, Harry Jackson, was born the next year. I do not know who Emma's father was -- on her birth cert it just lists her mother, Caroline Mortlock. Caroline was the daughter on Thomas Mortlock, born in 1755. He married a Susan Everid. I haven't got any further than that. If you know that line, I would appreciate help!! Is it true that the Mortlock family were generally cocoa mat weavers?? Susan Catudal of Montreal, Quebec Added 10th March 2007 Just to let you know that I own a building in Haverhill Suffolk that was built by John Mortlock circa 1620... later lived in by his son Thomas Mortlock and his wife Anne... Thomas' initials are inscribed on two fireplaces in the building....
If you ever need more information... or any of the Mortlocks want to visit... it
is an impressive building... 21 rooms and wonderful carved over-mantles
(fireplaces) . It is grade II* listed with English Heritage... can be seen on
web ... under Haverhill Physiotherapy Clinic or Anne of Cleves House.... good
luck, Brian Added 18th April 2007
Hi Tony Added 18th April 2007 Just found your website, brilliant. My great grandmother was Eleanor Mary Mortlock, born 1885? in Poplar, east London? She married Charles Edward Cobbett. They had Ethel Elizabeth who was my grandmother in 1912. They lived in Chesterton Terrace, Plaistow, east London. Raymond Mesher Anybody think they may have Eleanor Mary in their tree can contact me at: Received 27th June 2007 I found your Mortlock site by looking for a John Mortlock who produced a lithograph drawing of the LYDIA EVA YH89, the last surviving steam drifter, at Great Yarmouth. It is number 42, and there is an order form with it for many others - ships, buildings, cathedrals and churches, and places. No date, but it must have been between 1973 and 1978 when she was first open there as a museum ship. She then moved to St.Katherine's Dock London, and we returned her to East Anglia in 1990. I have been trying to find out who would hold the copyright of this drawing, as we would like to reproduce it and sell it on board. Do you have any contact details, please?

Countryside Museum at Stowmarket, Suffolk and restored as "Mortlock's Barn". Note: The write up referred to by Robert can be found in the Mortlock Encyclopedia Received 5th October 2007 Hi Tony just to let you know my connection to the Mortlock family. My Name is Rae Voice nee Mortlock (12th May 1962), I have 4 children Andrew (1983), Simon (1986), Elizabeth (1994) and Esther (1997).

Stephen stephen_janet_reynolds@sympatico.ca Received 9th October 2007 Hi Tony, I am Nawahl Mortlock, and living in Cape Town South Africa. I am very much interested in my origins, I have read that are Mortlock all over the world. My father has 6 brothers including himself, and we are all Muslims. Seeing that majority are from Europe, I'm even more curious how the Mortlocks came to the Cape. I thought my decedents were Malay, because of our features. Here we are referred to as colored people. The Cape came into being when the Dutch settled here to start a refreshment station for passing ship searching for the spice route. The Dutch then imported slaves from Indonesia, Java, Bali and many other eastern countries, that’s what I was thinking how we came about. So if do have any info pertaining to my info please let me know. My email adds. Nwhl.mortlock@yahoo.com Thank you, Nawahl Mortlock Received 12th October 2007 Hi Tony,
Added 15th October 2007 My husband's great-grandfather, George Pantlin, married a Matilda Mortlock (born 1853) in Kensington (1881). She was the daughter of James Mortlock and Hannah Bowers and was born in Hundon. I think her father, James Mortlock (born around 1831) was the son of James Mortlock (born around 1804) and Elizabeth Taylor. I'd love to discover Matilda's ancestors. Nichola Added 19th October 2007 I am researching my great grandfather, Robert Browne, who lived with his Grandfather Robert Norfolk B; 1819 blacksmith in Stonham Parva suffolk, (robert Norfolk's wife Susanna B;1817, Harkstead, suffolk). In 1871 he has a Nephew staying with him William MORTLOCK, B; 1855 Adelaide south Australia tracing back to 1861 the following appear in ST Pancras London Eliza Mortlock, Fundholder, widow B;1823 Harkstead, suffolk Eva Mary Mortlock, B;1859 South Australia William debelle Mortlock B;1855 South Australia so ELiza could have come back from Australia following the death of her husband between 1859 and 1861 of the family she was staying with in London, Charlotte Jane B1830, Harkstead Suffolk, could be a sister. Eva appears in 1871 in a girls school in Islington Also Robert Norfolk (who seems a kindly soul taking in relatives children) had a brother in law David Double, B;1831, Harkstead, suffolk staying with him, I am right at the earliest of the census records so no where to go on this but if it was the same family as Eliza, Susanna, and Charlotte it could be the origin of the Debelle/debell/dubell as a middle name one further thing, both Eva Mortlock and William Mortlock vanish after 1871, I think Eva could have died but my great grandfather "followed a relative to Canada" I would like to be able to see the Birth certificates of William Mortlock and Eva Mortlock, but the SA birth index is not online and searching for Mortlocks in Adelaide is like searching for horses in Newmarket, if anyone has this info could you foward it please!
