I am still having problems trying to find out where my ancestor Arthur Watts was born!!!Can anyone give me any help or ideas? I feel that I have exhausted all lines of research. Arthur Watts died aged 70 in Bury St Edmunds in March 1839.He had 2 sons by Elizabeth Timpson ,George and Henry in 1814/16. When he died he was married to Sarah Watts. Until I can find his birth I cannot get back any further with this line which is really annoying as Watts is my birth name.Thanks in advance
