A Tribute to Women, my earliest matrilineal ancestor Sarah Spurdens

This is my all time favourite line to trace. Much more challenging to identify maiden names, and thus vastly more rewarding.

SPECULATION: that our earliest matrilineal ancestor Sarah Spurdens was the same Sarah Spurdens born in Dickleburgh.

Ten Year Goal:  Can we make it a dozen, or possibly a baker's dozen, of generations for the matrilineal line?

Sarah Spurdens - bap 19 April 1746 to John Spurdens and his wife Elizabeth
11. Elizabeth ? m abt 1738 to John Spurdens Diss, Norfolk, she died bef 12 Feb 1755
Probably Elizabeth ALLEN m. John Spurgeon Norwich, St. James Pockthorpe, now a Puppet Theatre

12.?? Amie CHITTOKE , there is an Elizabeth Allen bap 1710 at St. Stephen's, Norwich, a mile away from St. James Pockthorpe. Her parents are William and Amie. A William Allen married Amie Chittoke at St Stephens in 1701.

Having fun with this - stay tuned for more. Working on disproving / proving these connections.
