Great Yarmouth Dudgeon brick wall.

Question

I need help with a brick wall (9th great grandfather) in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England.  Thomas Dudgeon Born around 1655, I have the birth of his daughter then the trail dries up.  Interestingly there was an Elizabeth Dudgeon who was famously hanged as a witch in Great Yarmouth in 1645 - so perhaps a connection?

Answer 1

Could this be him? His birth date seems a bit out as he was only 13 when Susanna was born, so this might be a better match.

That has to be him.   I actually saw it but discounted because of the name - but you are right - too close not to be him.. thanks!
