Have just found this site- it's so good!
I've found loads more contacts!! Thank you.

In this message thread is 1841 census
Little Lordings

William Burchell, 60, Carpenter
Elizabeth do, 40
George do, 20
James do, 15
Walter do, 12
Ann do, 10
Rhoda do, 8
Jane do, 6
Eliza do, 4
Maurice do, 2
Elizabeth do, 1

Can you possibly tell me where William was born as I cant find any birth records for him c1781. I know he was married 1815 at Shipley.
Wife was Norris.
Am trying to get back the next level to Williams parents and his siblings.
Thanks

Hi Sussex

Welcome to Rootschat

The BURCHELLs are my husband's family but I haven't yet followed William & co. backwards (or forwards to see if he appears in 1851 to find a possible birthplace listed for him).  If you think it possible he was still alive in 1851 then it might be a good idea to post a separate "lookup request" on the Sussex Lookup Requests board to see if anybody can find him.

I think this may be the family in 1851-
HO107/1650/45/7

It looks as though William has died

Elizabeth Burchell Head widow 52 pauper charwoman
Jane dau 16
Morris son 13
Elizabeth dau 12

on the following page is

George Burchell Head 28 journeyman carpenter

they all say born Billingshurst.

Thanks for the help. Have taken your advice and started a new request message with extra info about Luke Burchell.
