Given the gap between 1706 and 1726, it seems that this is a different couple – and it’s likely the father of William is the Henry baptised in 1706.

Mary wife of Henry Nun buried at Burgate 4 Nov 1759. Although Sarah wife of Henry Nun of Lopham, Norfolk, buried at Burgae 19 Oct 1734, and Sarah their daughter buried same day – is it this Henry or the father Henry above?

Mary, aged 90, wife of Henry Nunn of Wortham, buried 3 May 1803 – is this his wife instead?
