This Richard Savage was the last of that name in our ancestry.
He was an agricultural labourer, like most people in the rural county of Norfolk at that time, but he was also the parish clerk of Stockton. The position was not exactly that of a modern parish clerk, but probably something more like a lay preacher.
Father of Eliza, son of Richard and Minta Savage
Baptised Richard Savage on 11 February 1787 in Ellingham, Norfolk
Married Phoebe Fisk on 3 November 1806
