Re Harriett Foster/ James Wenham Hastings Sussex

[fozzie]

Hi again
Do you have any info on:-

Jabez William Foster, B abt 1878 Guestling Sussex I can't find his parents

Also Jonas Foster, B abt 1826 Mountfield Sussex married Hannah, B abt 1824 Fairlight Sussex

I think Jonas and Hannah may be the grandparents of Jabez but not sure.

Many thanks

Hi there

Have checked the 1841 census for Mountfield and surrounding district for your Jonas Foster; and whilst there are several foster families, non contain a Jonas aged 15 / 16

Similar thing with the 1851 census, lots of Foster's but none with a forename of Jonas.

Sorry

Hi Chris,
I have come to  a dead end with my Harriett Foster. Have done a birth index search on 1837 online and only found 1 Harriett Foster born in 1852 (Pershore/Penshore ??)
You mentioned that you found a Harriett Foster but with a different year of birth. Could you please give me the details so I can keep a note of them for future ref. etc:
Also someone told me there is a Family Research Meeting/ Fair going on at Hillcrest School soon Do you know anything about it or have I been
misinformed ?
Many thanks Chris
