Whilst William Crundwell was born at Penshurst .. his mother, and extended family, was from Frant in Sussex, it is right on the Sussex/Kent border ... he later lived at Etchingham in Sussex. I think you will find a link in that (all of) their church was at nearby Tunbridge Wells Wesleyan Methodists.

Willam's mother Sarah Crundwell (unmarried servant girl) was of Poundsbridge, a hamlet on the edge, and a I believe a parish of, Penshurst. My guess is that is where she was employed ... don't know yet by whom though.
