Hi Mark

There are some 3 x A4 pages of Crowhursts and just a handful of Roads - both with many spelling variations.

Will keep the Sellens on file for September

Hi there Robert

If l`m not to late could you possibly look up the following baptism in Isfield, Sussex.? 

John JENNER c1803 Son of John JENNER & Sarah nee TAYLOR.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

The Parish Registers for Isfield which are on the open access shelves contained the following baptism transcriptions:

1700 - 1789
1813 - 1861
1862 - 1948

so 1790 to 1812 was missing - we wanted 1803, 'sods law aint it'

But was able to confirm a marriage of August 30th 1802 between John Jenner and Sarah Taylor at Isfield

Sorry Robert

Hi Chris,

Thank you so much for all of your help and the time you have spent in searching.

I have the marriage license for John Jenner & Sarah Taylor but it`s nice to see they actually went through with the marriage.

Once again you have my sincere thanks.

Robert

Hi Margaret

Can u help me too pls.  Just discovered my Grandad Herbert William Sennitt died in Easbourne on 30.12.1930.  I have the certificate, but need to know if he was actually married to his 'Widow' E. Sennitt as he left my Nan for another woman and if i am right she would not divorce him and was apparently notified when he died (I think) as next of kin.  Is there any way of finding out if he had any more children with this lady or if he left a will, which might throw some insight into it.  He lived at 76 Pevensey Rd. Eastbourne but died at 123 Church St. Eastbourne. I have been on to all the sites but can only find him and my dad, who had the same name. Hope u can help, thanx a lot.

Sorry Margaret, the info you require is too modern for the record office in Lewes - I think a better bet might be the Library in Eastbourne

Hi Chris  

Thank you very much for your time and effort in trying to find the monumental inscriptions for Edward Page of Arlington and Frant. Although they didn't exist for that time period i really appreciate your help.

Thanks again

Chris - Many thanks indeed for finding the info on William Vine and his family! Very useful, pointing me in a different direction completely from what I had surmised.  - Steve

Hi there Kim

JOHN NEWNHAM born 1826 Fletching/Horsted Keynes
BENJAMIN NEWNHAM born 1824

I would like to know if they were brothers and if there were any other siblings.

Also could you verify the following marriage.

CAROLINE NEWNHAM TO GEORGE BROWNING, 1877 Danehill.

The Baptism Registers for Fletching only covered the period 1829 - 1878, so was unable to check in those.

The Baptism Registers for Horsted Keynes gave the following

3rd December 1826, John Newnham, son of Robert and Philly, Labourer, Mopes.

other children listed to those parents included

7th Dec 1823 - Annesley
14th Dec 1823 - Robert (aged 2 years)
3rd Dec 1826 - John

The only Benjamin Newnham I could find was the following

23rd August 1829, Benjamin George Newnham, son of Benjamin and Tirzah, Labourer, Annwood.

There were a lot of other children belonging to Benjamin and Tirzah

Marriages in Danehill

Entry No 112
3rd March 1877, Caroline Newnham and George Browning

other marriages around the same time that might be of interest from the Danehill Register include

No 98 - 4th Apr 1874, Benjamin Newnham to Susan Elizabeth Lucas
No 117 - 20th Oct 1877, John Robert Newnham to Eliza Tomsett
No 127 - 9th June 1879, Benjamin Newnham to Mercy Funnell
No 159 - 16th May 1885, Richard Newnham to Charlotte Brown
No 190 - 8th Feb 1890, George Newnham to Ann Marten
No 199 - 10th Feb 1891, Henry Newnham to Beatrice Pollard
No 202 - 10th Feb 1892, Benjamin Newnham to Mary Crombie
No 222 - 21st Jan 1894, Richard Newnham to Charlotte Brown
No 228 - 14th Apr 1894, Thomas Newnham to Adela Weller

Hope the above is of help to you

Hi Mark

Please can you look in the Hailsham Parish Registers for any CROWHURST or ROADS (RHODES; ROODS) entries in the 1700s?  Also, thanks for offering to look up the SELLENS information that was on your list from last time.

Variations of the Crowhurst name that I came across included

CROWHURST, CROWHERST, CORWHERST, CROHURST, CROWAST and CROWSHURST

All this information came from entries in the transcripts of the Hailsham Parish Registers between 1700 and 1800.
