Notes - The document "Some Rough Materials for a History of the Hundred of North Erpingham, Vol. 1, 1883 - Compilation of Published Sources" says he was an inhabitant of Mundesley for "upwards of 70 years". So he presumably moved with his parents around 1798 when his mother died????
Another JUNIPER baptised in Horning around the same time - Maria (abt 1796) appears to have the same parents but not really sufficient info to properly decide. This will be the subject of further research. Maria appears as an aunt in the 1861 Census to William and Benjamin SMITH.
Skyles does appear to have been well off. In the later census he is a farmer with 19 acres (is this the land from Peter above?), employs a boy and appears in the electoral register, presumably as a land owner, in the 1830s. .... so where did the money come from?
