The Common Room / Children on the 1939 census
« on: Sunday 11 November 18 12:19 GMT (UK)  »
I saw an earlier thread saying that you cannot read the records for anyone born after 1916 on the 1939 census.  I cannot find my husband's aunt, born in 1924, but have found the record for my cousin, born in 1933, and two evacuees living with them who were also born in the early 1930s.

Can anyone explain this anomaly.  The aunt has died since the census was released. My cousin is still alive but I don't know about the evacuees.

Many thanks for any help.

Vanhenry.

Sussex / Re: Penfolds in Ifield

Hi Trish

Many thanks for all this further information.  I have been looking at what I have and am now beginning to wonder if I went astray somewhere so I am having to check everything.

I am sure that my Edward Penfold, my great-great-great grandfather, is the one who married Frusanna, or possibly, Susannah, Brown as his son Edward and his wife Elizabeth Booker named one of their ten daughters Frusanna. The Edward who came from Shipley therefore seems unlikely so I do  think that he may have been baptised Edmond, which is very confusing.

I will go on thinking about this and thank you for your help.

Thank you all for this information which has opened up a lot for me to think about.  With regard to the other baptisms, it looks as if I may have confused the Edward baptised in 1768 with Edmond.  I shall have to go back and reconsider what I thought I knew about the family.

Sussex / Penfolds in Ifield
« on: Sunday 08 April 18 11:40 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
Can anyone give me any information about a William Penfold who was baptised in Ifield in 1725, his parents being Thomas and Mary Penfold.  I believe he may have married a Jane Mann, born 1733, and had a son, Edward, born in 1768.

As far as I have been able to tell, the family, or some of it, continued to live in Ifield until at least the 1880s.

Many thanks
Vanhenry
