EMNETH: Help wanted in tracing family history
I AM hoping that one of your readers can help me. I am trying to find out any information on the Pike or Sharpe family from the area around Emneth. My Great, Great Grandmother was a Maria Sharpe who married a gentleman by the name of Pike in the 1800s.

My Great, Great Grandmother was a Maria Sharpe who married a gentleman by the name of Pike in the 1800s.
They had numerous children, among which was Ann and Alice Pike, the son Henry Pike was my Great Grandfather.
I believe some of the siblings went to live in Sunderland and my Great Grandad became a Fruiterer.
There was quite a large family of the Pike's and I would love to find out if any of their descendants are in the Norfolk/Cambridgeshire area.
Any details at all would be much appreciated.
