Can you please give us the time frame / period for your ancestor becoming Mayor of Lewes.
It will better help identify what resources are available

Alison,
As you most probably know, George Holman was mayor of Lewes, 1898-1901 and 1907-1911. If you search www.a2a.org.uk, it shows that there is quite a bit of information (including photos and newspaper clippings collected by George Holman) that have been deposited at ESRO. I'm assuming that you have all of the family history information related to George Holman (if not, I can point you in the right direction). One other interesting fact that I came across regarding George was that hewas appointed Manager and Secretary of the Sussex Express newspaper in 1888 at a salary of £200 per annum.
Regards
Mark
