Hi again Rick
Could you please also advise if there is a Henry ADAMS in the QS too.
There are Henry Adams in both Offenders and Victims - which did you want?
Answer: Henry ADAMS offender in March 1838.
Only 1 entry - Henry Adams aged 35 Labourer of Portslade in 1844.
One last question what Catholic church and cemetery existed in or very nearby Lewes area in the early 1840s.
To the best of my knowledge, it was St Michaels in the High Street of Lewes, second nearest would be in Brighton
St Michael-in-Lewes.
This church stands in the busy High Street of Lewes, at the foot of the mound bearing the keep of the Norman Castle, and is distinguished by its slender shingled spire rising from the top of a round flint tower (only two others like it in Sussex). Believed to have been instituted as ‘the church of the castle’, the expression “tanquam matrici ecclesie” (Mother Church) in the 16th century seems to imply that it held a position of seniority in the town. By the time of the Reformation, St Michaels was in a deplorable condition and its fortunes suffered another serious setback during the Puritan revolution as the citizens of the town remained predominantly Dissenters. In 1748 extensive building works were carried out (rebuilding of South Aisle, with two doors onto the street) and from the incumbency of Frederick Teed (1841 – 1863) a number of changes began to be made to the liturgy and furnishings which reflected the catholicising influence of Newman and Pusey. Much of the churches present-day character is thanks to the Rev Edgar Herman Cross (1877 – 1891)
Hope that helps
