hmmm, never noticed before - LDS/IGI registers for Great Burstead are only 1559-1654  .... I think you will have to visit the Archives Office in Chelmsford or Colchester - and no records transcribed for Burnaham it seems ..

(Little Burstead is 1681-1812   --  but sadly no Ockendons)

Thank you ScRoppers, I live in County Durham so a long way away from Essex, I'm  hoping someone else researching my family still  lives down that way.

If you dont find anybody - I think the Essex folks offer a research service - they should be able to find your man in the untranscribed Registers for a bit less than a Kings Ransom !

The Bursteads and Billericay are interesting places ....

Hope this helps and you're most welcome .....

Hi,
   my 3rd great grandmother was Louisa Ockenden (1823-1873) who married into the Hymas family in Rayleigh from where I descend (John Hymas 1816-1882ish).  She was the eldest daughter of Joseph/Ruth, and would be the brother to your John.

  I've got some info on the Ockendon line from the census and have seem some refs to Ackindon to make things more complicated!

I've only just found out the Garpin name tie-in - I see that there are deaths of Robert and Elizabeth Garpin registered in the 1842/43 BMD index for Maldon which would fit well - have you seen them - parents or brother/sister? I also note a few refs to Garpen, though does seem to be a relatively unusual name.

I'd be interested in anything going back down this line, regards, Jon.

Hi Jon

I'd be interested in any info you have on the Ockenden family. My g-grandmother was a Maude Gertrude Hymas who was a grand-daughter of John Hymas & Louisa Ockendon

Hi Kattysoo,

I've just moved to Essex, I'm just finding my feet around here but if you let me know what you are looking for I will see what I can do.

Thank you but I've got loads more now than when I posted my request.It was really kind of you to offer and if anything comes up I don't have I'll contact you.
I hope you enjoy living in Essex, I haven't been there since I was young but I liked it very much.
