PARKS/PARKES family
« on: Monday 10 August 09 21:50 UTC (UK) »

From the 1851 Census, I have a John PARKS said to be born c1842, Bodiam with parents Jeremiah Parks born c1795 Sedlescombe and Harriett Parks born c1803, Mountfield. I would appreciate any further help with baptisms of Jeremiah Parks and wife Harriett  ? and date of their marriage if possible.

Many thanks.

Hi Polly

SMI has the marriage

Jeremiah Parks of Sedlescombe to Harriet Waters at Mountfield on 10 December 1823

so I am guessing John was not their first child.

I wasn't able to find a baptism for Jeremiah on the Sussex Family History Group baptism database but I did find a possible for Harriet.

Harriet Waters baptised 9 November 1803 at Warbleton to Thomas and Jane Waters.

Harriot Waters, baptised 31 January 1804 at Mountfield to Edward and Mercy Waters.

The SFHG doesn't have the greatest search engine however; here is one for Harriot Waters.
Harriot Waters baptised 31 Jan 1804 Mountfield Father: Edward, Mother: Mercy.

I wonder if this is Edward's marriage despite the wrong spouse name

Edward Waters of Mountfield to Mary Watson at Salehurst on 15 December 1802

Witnesses - Daniel Watson and John Heathfield

Many thanks to you all for the excellent information and in such quick time as well. I cannot find this PARKES/PARKS family on the 1841 Ancestry Census, but from Bodiam OPC online I have the following children of Jeremiah and Harriett---

Elizabeth 1830, Harriett 1831, Jeremiah 1833, James 1835, Hannah 1837, Edward 1840 and the said John 1842, so quite possibly more children born earlier as Jeremiah and Harriett were married in 1823.

Thanks again
