Heathfield Parish Registers

[kerryb]

Hi Paul

Looking at the Sussex Family History Group database there is a baptism for a William Jarvise at Heathfield on 16 November 1777 to Mark and Ann.  Don't know if that is any help.

If you have a lot of Sussex family it really is worth joining the family history society, only 11.50 a year and well worth every penny if only for the baptism and burial database

Looking some more:
Baptised at Heathfield to Mark and Ann and all spellings except for William are now Jarvis, so William probably a misspelling?
Ann on 9 July 1770
Thomas on 13 December 1772

then to a Mark and Kezia (2nd wife?)
James on 30 July 1780
Henry on 13 april 1783

and then to Marquick ( ) and Keziah
Hesiah on 5 June 1785
Ann on 12 August 1787

kerry. Mark and Ann then Mark and Kezia.  On Mark's mariage to Kezia he is down as Bach, Would this mean not married before or could it also imply that first wife has died.

Dear Sir/Mam
I was wondering if anyone had burial registers for Heathfield?
I am looking for the burial place for William Harmer 18th June 1698 someone also has 3rd Jan 1698 so not sure, which one it is he married Mary Grace Crouch d 1st June 1698 but i can not find her either most of the Harmer family were buried in All saints Heathfield in the hope someone may be able to help, kind regards Kim

Kim,

I have the PRTS transcript of Heathfield registers. It says for burials in 1698 (and several years around that time) only the BT entries are available.

The HARMER entries in 1698 are:
1 June buried Mary HARMAR
18 June buried William HARMAR

No age or relationship information is given, but around that time it often was. For example, the entry before that of William records the burial of "Sarah the wife of John NORDEN" on 4 June. This doesn't give confidence in the entry for Mary HARMER being that of William's wife.

There is no entry for the 3 January, even after allowing for the old style calendar.
