Baxters of Orford
Orford
Orford is a coastal town and former port, twelve miles east of Woodbridge. Orford Castle was built between 1165 and 1173, it is a unique polygon building of eighteen sides, standing on the summit of a hill. The church is dedicated to St Bartholomew and was built at about the same time as the castle. The parish registers date back to 1538.

*This is the burial record for Jemima and there was a change to her second name at some point. Francis Baxter and family were living in Little Turner Street at the time of her death.
