Robert Ginn of Eynesbury died 1781

Robert here was son of Thomas in my last post.  I have always assumed that he was a tailor as every generation in this family seem to have been, but cannot state that as a known fact.


Robert married Mary Mills at Barham in 1737.  Either this was his first marriage (and he later married another Mary) or this was his only marriage and the couple either initially had children at other than Eynesbury or had some trouble in starting a family, as the first child was not baptised at Eynesbury until 1744.

The couple always lived there, I sadly have no idea exactly where.  Mary was buried at Eynesbury in 1780, Robert in 1781 aged 58.

Robert and Mary had six children
