Have you looked him up in Crockfords Clerical Dictionary?  It generally gives a potted history of each person.   Old copies at the Society of Genealogists I expect or perhaps Brighton library or the Sussex Record offices?

Where have you looked?   Have you searched all the local parish records?     The census records??  Have you contacted the Lewes record office to see what they have??
There are lots of sources available that may lead you in the right direction.    Determination is the name of the game but it is hard work too!

It has just occurred to me that you do not mention his death.  Have you found that?   A will might give many clues.
