FatherEdmund Cross (ca1625-1665)
MotherSarah (ca1627-1690)
Notes for Peter Cross
At his marriage in 1688, Peter was recorded as the son of Edmund Cross.

The Suffolk Digest has records of earlier children born to Peter and Joanna Cross from 1574 to 1682.  I wonder if this was an earlier marriage and if Elizabeth Peckover was his second wife, with her children born from 1688 to, poss, 1708?

There are records on the internet that he was born on 18 Aug 1647 at St Mary, Woodbridge, Suffolk.  However I have been unable, so far, to confirm this so am deleting that birth date.  (It might be a baptism entered in the C of E parish register, though.)
