How it all began

Every family has at least one story, whether it's of success or whether it's something that descendants would prefer to keep hidden. In my case, the most entertaining characters seem to have all been members of the Morris family of Aston and Yardley in Birmingham.

Biographies of some family members

Help wanted

There are a number of puzzles which I have so far been unable to solve.
I would be extremely grateful if you are able to answer any of the following questions:

1. The place, date and bride of the first marriage of John Fuller of Buxhall, 1705-1776, who married Sarah ???, c.1706-1764, sometime in the 1720's.
2. The baptisms of John Fuller of Buxhall's children. The estaimated dates of birth have been calculated from marriage licences and monumental inscriptions.
3. The baptism of William Fuller of Woolpit, c.1762-1792, who was apprenticed to Thomas Thurlow of Buxhall in 1772 and married Mary Diggens in the 1780's.
4. The marriage of Edmund Osborne who was named as a son-in-law in the will of John Fuller of Buxhall, 1777.
5. The baptism of Richard Osborn of Nedging who married Susan Pond in Buxhall in 1787.
6. The baptism of Jacob Fuller of Stowmarket and Northfleet who, according to his burial record, was born in 1774/5.
7. The marriage of Edmund Pearl (the younger) to Sarah ???. Sarah was identified as a niece in the will of Robert Fuller of Buxhall, 1813. (This wasn't the marriage on 06/06/1797 at Brettenham between Edmund Pearl and Sarah Gardiner - that was the re-marriage of Edmund's father.

Any other corrections or additional information would, of course, be gratefully received.
