* Orvsden, Suffolk, England - Can't Find It!

[davidm_uk]

When searching for relatives I found a few in Orvsden, Suffolk, England on the Family Seach web site:

https://familysearch.org/search/record/ ... England%22

However I can't find this place on any maps, or on Google. I don't think that it's Elveden mistranscribed.

Any ideas what it might be or where it is?

I have found a reference to "An ingrossed bill for dividing the Lands in the Parish of Ousden, otherwise Orvesden, in the county of Suffolk.." in a book covering the journals of the House of Commons - the date referred to is 13 April 1812.

Hope this helps.

It probably won't help but here are some more Orvsden, Suffolk, England entries:

I suspect JB is right and it's Ousden, do the entries list the church Ousden's is St Peters.

Looks like my reply this afternoon was in the "deleted records"!

Ousden looks right, and is consistent with other info I have about the people, plus jbtapscott's reference pretty well confirms it.

Thanks for your help.
