« on: Saturday 16 July 05 14:26 BST (UK) »
This is what i have from Gemsgirl
Dear Findo
Here are the family in 1851 Census:
1851 Census transcription HO 107/1646 Brighton, The Old Town Folio 33
1 Saunders Building
BOYLES Henry Head Married 42y Baker North Binstead
BOYLES Harriett Wife Married 45y Greengrocer Rottingdean
BOYLES John son 13y Brighton
BOYLES James son 11y scholar Brighton
BOYLES Edward son 9y scholar Brighton
Best Wishes
Gemsgirl
There is no North Binstead IOW but the Henry I seek is from South Bersted Parish which incorporates North Bersted. Think I'll have a bacon sandwich and then water the garden and take the dog for a walk. I am begining to look like Hercule Poirot.
Thanks again Findo battling on

Sussex Lookup Requests / Re: Searching for Henry Francis in Sussex in 1841
« on: Saturday 16 July 05 09:15 BST (UK) »
Hi Diane Thankyou very much for your help. My search for Henry Boyles has been a brick wall for ages. When Henry Francis married Sarah Knight in 1856 he knew the name of his father i.e. Henry Boyles who was an Ag Lab. When Henry Francis was christened, and I have the records from West Sussex, no father is mentioned.
What is confusing is that Henry Francis names his birthplace as Sutton in 1851 (he was 18) when he was living with a Hubbard family in Pulborough as a servant journeyman blacksmith. In 1861 he gives his birthplace as Pulborough and in 1871, again Sutton. He died later in 1871. There are some Francis baptisms in in Sutton 1820-1841.
I recently found out that Harriet Francis married a Thomas Child in December 1838 In the 1851 census for Pulborough which I have from West Sussex I find that Thomas Child is a blacksmith an Harriet gives her birthplace as Birdham although she was christened in Siddlesham the daughter of Charles and Martha Francis. In 1841 Thomas and Harriet are living in Lower Street but no sign of Henry who would be about 8yrs.
From the IGI I can only find one Henry Boyles in the period born in 1810 to a Nicholas Boyles and Ruth Boniface in South Berstead.
South Berstead is quite near Siddlesham hence my interest in the Henry Boyles of Brighthelmston who married another Harriet (Bishop) in Feb 1837. I wonder if the 1851 census in Brighton shoud be Berstead instead of Binstead. So what happened to little Henry in 1841 and am I on the right track for his dad. I have traced this Henry Boyles back and would love to be convinced that I hve the right bloke
because this is my direct paternal line. What are the odds?
All help appreciated Findo http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/p/a/r/David-M-Parker/index.html

William Thomas Benfield was born in Blackwall Middlesex in 1831. he was an accountant/ solicitors clerk and his father was a William Benfield, Gentleman. In 1856 he married Emma Elizabeth Davis Godbolt (born Southtown) in Gt Yarmouth. In 1881 he was living in Dagmar Road London (Name wrongly Binfield). He had a son William in 1860 and Emma in 1858. He had Alice in 1865 and Florence in 1871. Iwould like to find out any information from 1841,1851,1861,1871. If I find the mother of William Thomas it will complete all 32 of my 6th generation. My web site is in my profile. Thanks very much Findo
