5 x Great Grandparents THOMAS DEEKS 1759 Son of Thomas Deeks c1730 and Mary Peacock Thomas was born about 1759 and baptised on 12 Nov 1761 (1) in Hundon, Suffolk. He married Margaret Halls on 20 April 1783 (1) in Hundon. Margaret Halls was born about 1762 in Hundon, Suffolk. I cannot trace her baptism so her year of birth is taken from the age given at the time of her death. Thomas was a Farmer of Highfield Farm, Hundon. He and Margaret had 4 children.
