St Nicholas Church, Rattlesden, Suffolk, England


Thomas Munson was christened in this church in 1612, Thomas is my 8th great grand father  He was buried in New Haven, CT in  1685. I know more about Thomas than I know about any of my other great grandfathers. I hope to learn more about all of them. Genealogy is a great hobby for a person who likes history and memories. I plan to blog about my genealogical discoveries.

  1. I think I have an ancestor baptised here in 1595. How can I find the records?

  3. Hello!
    It is so nice to see your blog and pictures. Thomas Munson is my 9th great grandfather through his son Samuel, his son John, to John's daughter Mehitable Munson who married Benjamin Morris. I am just finding info now about his birthplace and ancestry. I have another ancestor born there too - I am looking through my records to find out which one it is. I love seeing a picture of the church where Thomas was christened. Diana Tierney dianarocks@comcast.net

  4. Hello Chuck, It has been a pleasure to read your blogs. Just thought I would let you know that Thomas Munson is my 10th greatgrandfather. I descend from Samuel born 1643; Samuel bron 1664; Solomon born 1688; Samuel born 1717 and then Samuel's daughter Ruth who married Benjamin VanCleave. It is very interesting to find your heritage. My father's side seems to consist of wonderful ancestors from the UK, Switzerland, Holland, and Ireland.
    Quite the mixture.
