THERE IS FURTHER RESEARCH TO DO - There is no obvious baptism for James Fulcher. His wife Margaret was born in Hunstanton, they married inland at Sculthorpe and then settled in Stanhoe. There are no records in Sculthorpe or Stanhoe that could be of help and Hunstanton registers are missing. As James Fulcher made two attempts to have a child named William it seems possible his father or a sibling bore that name. The forenames Elizabeth and Edmund have not appeared in Margaret Mason's family as yet so may also be of help.
