HILDER family - Sussex, Kent area
« on: Wednesday 11 August 21 20:51 BST (UK) »
I am currently researching the HILDER families in and around  the Kent Sussex Surrey Borderlands 1700 - 1850 .the Sarah HILDER  I am  looking for was born circa 1770,
Married a William FIELDER in Edenbridge 23 rd April 1795.
They have a family of atleast 4 children William 1795, Louisa 1802, Harriet 1805, Charlotte 1808 and suspect and earlier Elizabeth.
There is clearly a fairly wealthy farming family of HILDERS  in this region  with several very useful wills 1795 - 1828.
I have several Sarah HILDERS born in Sussex, but none if them seem likely candidate's. Kent records appear to be a possible source of  information, but nothing positive  has come to light.
