    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Census: 1881, Birds End, Hargrave, Suffolk, England, UK
    • Census: 1891, No 72 Beer House, Hargrave, Suffolk, England, UK
    • Census: 1901, Hole Farm, Chevington, Suffolk, England, UK
    • Census: 1911, Birds End, Hargrave, Suffolk, England, UK

    Notes:

    In the history of Chevington book, an Edward (Nimbly) Nunn and his son James are mentioned as transporting people by horse and carriage between Chevington and Bury St Edmunds. The book has a picture of James in the driver's seat.
    There is no mention of James in 1928 in details of his father's passing and a possible Hargrave burial: 27 Oct 1916 James Nunn - 40. This also possibly fits with reports of an accident in July 1916 of James Nunn of Bird's End being badly hurt when he fell from a trap after his pony bolted. It also described him as an invalid.
