Sussex / Is Hellingly in Cuckfield
« on: Saturday 02 December 06 19:36 GMT (UK)  »
Hi

I was wondering if someone can help me. I have an Albert Anscombe born in Q4 1899 in the Cuckfield district. When I have tried to identify him on the 1901 census there are a couple of Albert Anscombes but one particularly fits into my family area but it says that he was born in Hellingly. Did or does Hellingly come under the Cuckfield district?

Thanks

Gloucestershire / Merrett/ Knight

I wonder if someone could help me. I am looking for a Daniel Merrett's family.

I have found him on the 1901 census
Daniel Merrett     28     Gloucester
Rose Merrett       25     Haresfield
Florence E             3     Gloucester
Charles                 7 mths  Gloucester

The trouble is when I try to find him on an earlier census there seems to be two Daniel Merretts born about the same time as each. the same goes for his wife Rose Knight there seems to be two Roses born about the same time and I do not know which one is which.

In 1881 there seems to be a Daniel whose parents are William and Sarah and another Daniel whose parents are Sarah and Joseph.

As for Rose are her parents George and Sarah. I am having trouble working this one out.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks very much for the welcome, also the information especially regarding the / and // on the censuses as I did not know what that meant. I have them with eleven children, who knows may be there is more than that.

I really need to get to the record office and look at the parish registers as there is so much to discover.
I would like to discover more local history as family history.

As far as I know the there is not connection with the other Piper that someone is looking for, but thanks for the tip Jane.

Thanks for the welcome

Thank you very much for your help. It would explain why in one of the census returns although I cannot remember which they have a 15 year old John Tedham staying with them, who I assume must be a sibling of Carolines.

The connection with the Tedhams could possibly mean that I am related to one of my friends from school with whom I am still in touch. Although I no longer live in Sussex I did grow up there and was christened at Warbleton as was my dad and his brothers and sisters.

I shall have to investigate further I have only been doing the tree thing a couple of months, but boy doesn't it become a bit obsessive.

Thanks for your help

Sussex / Tedham or Robins

I wonder if someone could help me I am trying to find information on a George Piper born abt 1811 at Bodiam married to Caroline born abt 1811 in Warbleton. They had several children one born in 1843 Heathfield called Harriett who married a Joseph Burchett. The information I am after is about Caroline, I have had two pieces about her and they are totally different, one is that her surname is Robins and the other information is that her surname is Tedham. Does anyone know anything about her or when she got married to George? I do know that in the census information that they lived in Heathfield but it is really her maiden name that I am after.

I would appreciate any input that i might be able to look into
