Looking for birth/baptism of Zebulun Newington possible at Ticehurst

[Westy11]

Zebulun Newington & Frances Burges/Burgess married [as per Family Search] 06 Feb 1706 at Ticehurst, Sussex which may or may not be the brides parish.

Zebulun & Frances children, all baptised at Ticehurst are:
Joseph: 1707
John: 1709
Zebulun: 1711
Benjamin: 1712
Frances: 1714
Samuel: 1717
Frances: 1719

I am hoping someone with better research skills than I can locate the baptisms of Zebulan and Frances senior please.

I don't have access to all my records at the moment but there is an interesting note against one of the baptisms above that says father is "Mr jun".   That could imply there is an older Zebulun around.
In the early 1600s there are children of Zebulun Newington being baptised in Burwash so maybe widen the search a bit.  It also says the surname is Newton in the BTs.
Burial in Ticehurst for Mr Zebulon Newington in 1720.  No age given.  And this one......
 Entry from Ticehurst St. Mary 1559-1899
     Zabulon       NEWINGTON   
BURIAL DATE     6-Nov   
YEAR     1697   
OTHER     of Wadhurst, Physician. Bur in linnen and ye forfeiture was paid to ye chuchw: before 8 days were out   

and another ......
Entry from Ticehurst St. Mary 1559-1899
     Zebulon    NEWINGTON   
AGE     70y   
BURIAL DATE     6-Jun   
YEAR     1802 

  There are others too.     Have you looked for wills?  They do seem to be affluent.

There are some interesting wills on the National Archives site.

Hello Sillgen,

Very good idea and thank you. 

That will help enormously in keeping track of the lines.

A small query: what does "It also says the surname is Newton in the BTs." mean specifically BTs?  Maybe birth transcripts??

Westy

[sillgen]

Copies of the register sent to the Bishop so there are often slight differences.    Depends how carefully they were done.

[Westy11]

OK 

[Pheno]

BT = Bishops Transcript which is the document described by sillgen.  Should be a copy of the actual register but there are sometimes differences between the two which is why the original should always be checked if possible.

Good point Pheno and thanks for the clarification on BT.
