This abstract was provided by Kenneth Baker kenvin.baker(at)virgin.net. Ken is a noted authority on the Timperley's of Hintlesham and co-author (along with his wife Marjorie) of the guide book to St.Nicholas Church, Hintlesham. I'm sure he would be happy to answer specific questions about this illustrious Timperley family. |
