It would seem that the first Baptism at St John Sub Castro was in 1830, this gives a very good indication when the family moved to that part of Lewes.

Hi Chris in 1066

Thank you for the information. Although none of the Henrys in your find were "my" Henry, (my great great great grandfather). you did give me a date of death for his wife, Martha. I knew that she passed in 1853 but did not have the month nor day.

My line came to Lewes in about 1820 or so, when henry left the army, (10th Hussars) after 17 years service. His son, George, came here, to Canada in 1857. Two other sons were "transported in 1834 and 1839 to Taz. The remaining 5 sons remained in Lewes and as far as I know, there are descendent's there to this day.

Henry and Martha had 8 sons and no daughters.

Again, thank you for your help.

Hi there Mike

Welcome to Rootschat and especially the Sussex boards.

Nice to see that you have joined our little community.

Sorry I could not locate your Henry in St John Sub Castro, do you have any further info as to where he might be resting - especially as his wife is in St John.

If I can help you further, please give me a shout

Hi Chris in 1066

I am afraid that the only burrial info that I have on Old Henry is that he was either buried or passed away on March 17, 1861 and was interred at St John Sub Castro. I do know, however that he was born in Cranley, (Cranleigh), Surrey in 1782 and settled with his family, (Martha and 2 sons, at the time), in Lewes about 1817-18. They had 6 more sons, all born in Lewes and all christened at All Saints, starting in 1818. In 1841, they lived on West St and then, according to the 1851 census, they lived at 19 St John St. His occupation in Lewes was listed as Town Carrier. (I would guess that would be "Town Crier"). As Martha died in 1853, I wonder if they would even be buried together.
Are you aware of any other cemeteries in Lewes where they would have planted people back then.
Thanks again,

His occupation in 1851 is Carrier (Town) - Global Mod

Hi Mike

You asked:

Where should I start

St John Sub Castro
All Saints
St Michael at South Malling
St John the Baptist, Southover
St Thomas a Beckett in the Cliff (Old Town)
St Michael in the High Street (Roman Catholic)
Weslyean Chapel
St Annes without
and of course the Cemetary for burials from the whole town c1850 onwards

Found this one in the 1841 for St John the Baptist, but he has all girls, obviously not the one

Hi Chris,

Oh my! That is quite a list. Thank you, kindly, for your time. I will check back from day to day. It is confusing, that the info that I have on Henry shows him to be at St. John Sub Castro, (as is his wife, Martha), yet there are no records of him being there.
Thanks again for your help and quick responses.
