Sussex Burial Reg Transcriptions

[Chris in 1066Land]

Hi Mandy

Now thats a new angle

Having a data base that has the transcription of the Burial Register, Transciption and Photograph of the Headstone, plus a copy of the Death Certificate would be quite unusual.

Thanks - can you can send it as a jpg file so that I can attache it into the database.  If the others pertain to St John Sub Castro - OK

Hi Chris,

My first attempt at attaching Catherine SETFORD's death certificate failed - it was too large.  Have now reduced it to under 300k so hopefully it will appear this time.

She was born 1836 in Cuckfield and married 1862 in Ditchling as Catherine TULETT to Thomas SETFORD.  He died 1905 in East Chiltington and was buried in Barcombe.  Their children were born Cuckfield, Chailey, Newick, Plumpton, Streat and Barcombe, so they got about a bit.

Hi there

Thanks for the certificate

It has been attached to Monument 543 St John Sub Castro in my database

Hi Again

You wrote - Next time I'm in Lewes I shall have to have a wander round the churchyard.

There are some 800 stones in the yard at St John Sub Castro, and although we have surveyed it and drawn a 100:1 scale plan - I have not as yet been able to shrink it down to a suitable size for reproduction. (Its about 5 foot x 4 foot)

As you enter the yard from the main footbath, stone 543 is approx half way down on the right hand side, (where the ground dips) just after the clump of trees over the big Cooper tombs.

(The dip in the ground, level with the Russian Monument is the extension to the old churchyard in 1864)

Thanks Chris for the directions.  I shall take my Mum with me, she was 17 months old when Catherine died, so may have had a cuddle from her Great Gran.  Sadly I don't have or know of any photos of Catherine.  Thanks again, Mandy

Hi Chris,

Would be very grateful for details of any transcriptions of Tredwell/Treadwell's to be found in Lewes (from 1840 to about 1880).  Can't be definite about which parish in Lewes though   

Many thanks and keep up the good work.  Your fame has spread - I'm researching from Ireland.

Dear Chris1066,
(Nice to have you back by the way, hope you had a nice holiday)
Do you have any memorial inscriptions from St Anne's, Lewes by any chance?

Hi there Amy

Thanks for the welcome back - in some ways its nice to be back on line, in other ways its even better to be still exploring Castles in South Wales or wandering around the Roman Baths at Bath or deep underground in the Cheddar Gorge or Wookie Holes - ah well, heres to next year.

St Annes in Lewes has not been covered as yet by myself as I understand a start has been made on it by another organisation (think it is the Sussex FHS)

So unfortunately I have no info at all, except a description of the church.

Sorry to be so negative Amy
