My 1885 Kelly's Directory entry for Cuxwold states that the Church Register dates from 1683; the incumbent then was Rev. Charles Marsh Eckersley Hallsworth B.A. of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge. William Thorold Esq. was Lord of the Manor and sole land owner. The population was 101 and guess what........<b>Joseph Harrison</b> was the Parish Clerk! Hoping that this of some use and I'll keep an eye out for anything else I feel might be pertinent. Regards, Neville Chris,
