Hi , hope you all are keeping well .I am looking for a birth for a samuel Jacobs who was married to Elizabeth Wright at nedgley Suffolk in Nov 1787. also trying to find elizabeth's birth if possible . I have found a tree belonging to my daughters ancestors on FS. site. Does Suffolk have its own parish records ? can anyone help thanks chrissie

Of course Suffolk has its own parish records, but unfortunately there are not many of them available online yet.

I don't think there is such a place as Nedgley in Suffolk. The marriage took place at Nedging.

There is a Samuel Jacob, baptised 18 Mar 1764 at Bildeston, Suffolk, the son of Samuel and Elizabeth. And Samuel Jacobs buried 5 Feb 1842 at Bildeston, age 80. A Mary Jacobs was baptised at Bildeston 10 Jun 1810 (born 2 Oct 1799) with parents' names Samuel Jacobs and Elizabeth Wright. These are from parish register transcriptions (on Ancestry, most likely also on FamilySearch), and so it does look likely that the Samuel who married Elizabeth Wright is the one baptised at Bildeston. Bildeston is pretty close to Nedging.

On the 1841 census, Samuel and Elizabeth are both down as age 79:
