Pipe family at Piscor Green
Does anyone know where Piscor Green, Stradbroke (1841 census) is or was. Or the Pipe family other than the census records.

Probably Pixey Green which is on the road to Fressingfield. Let us have your Pipe family details-names dates etc and we will see what we have in the Village Archive

Thank you Mike, I wondered about this but the 1841 enumerators 'route' clearly read Piscor. I now realise the the sc are x so Pixey is probably right.
Richard Pipe (1789-1865) married Elizabeth Chilvers. I believe Richards was illegitimate son of Elizabeth.
Their son George Pipe (1836-c1901) married Sarah Bridges and had 14 children, 12 of them in Stradbroke (Barlow Green, and Barnt House) before moving to Sunderland, DUR. in 1871.
Their daughter Alice stayed behind as a 12 yr old servant at The Abbey, Hoxne. (1871 census) as did most of Georges siblings.
Is this enough info. I have some photos of George and Sarah, Dorothy

Would be interested to know more about Sarah Bridges.
Most of the Bridges' entanglements with Pipe's seems to be around Brundish though.

I assume you mean Sarah who married George Pipe, but I also have 3 other Sarah Bridges. do you want to contact me off line through my Brewis web site and we can exchange info, or is there a specific bit of info you would like?

I am very interested in this posting of the Pipe family. I have a 1940 BSA motorcycle, a very rare beast, that I bought in Norwich about thirty years ago with no paperwork or history. I only now have the time to ronovate it and I discovered three receipts from 1960 from Stradbroke Garage to a Mr M Pipe for petrol, oil etc. One, for Esso petrol, stated 'Pay Saturday' so M Pipe must have been a regular who probably passed Stradbroke Garage on his way to work each day. Does anyone remember an M Pipe riding a tatty old 350 side valve BSA motorcycle in 1960, - perhaps a father or uncle? The bike was originally registered in East Sussex on 1st March 1940 and I wondered how it got to Stradbroke, and then Norwich, at a time when people didn't stray far from their home town or village.
