Southwick Baptism record look up

[janan]

Hi

Couldn't see a burial for Rhoda Upton nor a Southwick marriage to a Frances to John Upton. Did do a double check on the John/Rhoda marriage

John Upton batchelor of this parish to Rhoda Sturt spinster of New Shoreham on 1 Nov 1828 both parties signed. Witnesses James Upton and Elizabeth Allen both made their mark

Is this the James born Brighton and possibly brother to your John? If so it looks like he would need to be a widow when he married Hannah in Brighton as

James Upton married Elizabeth Upperton in Southwick 5 Dec 1826 witnessed by a Samuel Upton - another brother?

Just seen the Brighton marriage was in 1839 when James would have been 78 - possible but not very likely?

Thank you for looking Jan. Looks like we are no further ahead then before, just more mysteries. I will have to sit down and go through all this again and see if there are any other possible avenue's, I am sure I saw a tree which had a James & Elizabeth Upperton on it and when I contacted them it turned out to be a completely different family, will have to go check my contacts.

If I ordered the marriage cert for James to Hannah would that really bring us any more forwards?

Hhmm need to review all this I think.

Thanks again for your help. Regards Gary
