are you in Sussex?
the Sussex Record Office should have the PR's although i am not sure when they date back to
PR's began in Henry VIII time

and if you are lucky they will have the protestant returns to - this was a 'piece of paper' signed by male hea dof households i beleive over a certian age declaring there faith to the Queen (Eliz. I) after the hoo ha over Mary Queen of Scots - the catholic one!

I've had a look on the Sussex Marriage Index for any Gudsell marriages in Frant around that time but there are none.  However there are a couple in Lamberhurst in the 1570s.

Hi Toni

Yes I was just about to say but the postman interrupted me with a Faulkner certificate  Grin that those two are Gutsell and there is a later (1610) Gutsell marriage again in Lamberhurst.

Hi Katrina

Well you won't regrent a trip to Sussex in that case.  Grin

Another site which is quite useful for baptisms in Sussex is www.familyhistoryonline.co.uk there is a small charge but it has loads of Sussex records on it.  For marriages just ask a rootschatter, a number of us have a copy of the Sussex Marriage Index CD.  Cheesy

Getting back to 1591 in a week must be a record!      Where did you find all this?   Did you already have a good family tree?     Most of us take ages to get that far - if we ever do - as we get stuck proving relationships in the early 1800s when we cannot get certificates or check census records to be absolutely sure we are on the right line.  I have been doing this for well over 20 years and am still stuck at 1790 with my main line.   I have a possible birth which would then take me back to 1600 but I can't prove it!

I knew some names, and the rest was a little harder, mainly I had a lot of help from websites, like births and mariages and stuff. I guess this is an easy one to follow, Im tracing another 4 family names, one got back to the 1100's by chance because once I got down to the 1700s it linked up with someone elses findings. But with the others Im stuck around the 1500-1800. Except one stops in 1900 (coz I havent a first name). And another stops in 1800 because of immigration and no first name.

Its going to be done though. Ill continue till the end of time if I have to.

Hi katrinan

Welcome to Rootschat  Cheesy

Some families are easier than others - especially if they are kind enough to stay put for generations. There can still be problems though if more than one branch has children of the same name. As Andrea says back before civil registration and census records it can take a huge amount of time to check and double-check you are following the right people and sometimes you can never seem to find the proof you need to back-up a hunch. Wills can be very helpful and it is surprising how many people left them.

I would be very wary of accepting other people's findings as gospel - they may or may not be accurate. I found a tree which had 'stolen' my great grandparents and had them die in Minnesota when I know 100% that they died in Bridport, Dorset!

Anyway good luck with your research

Regards
Jan Wink
