hi again phyllis.
had a look for marriages in woolbedding, cant see any obvious ones for backhurst, but a boswell (.maybe harriets parents? just a thought )
nov 26 1806 james boswell - mary child,woolbeding
, .w: Richd FEEST Anne BOSWELL

another boswell
18 april 1834 louisa boswell - benjamin sanders.woolbeding.
w: Edwd BOSWELL My SANDERS

all i can see in woolbeding.they might come in useful.

bit more difficult to get william (1814) parents as hes married by the 1841 cencus,should be poss i think to get info from records office,now you have a date and an area.worth looking at.

there is a william boswell age 55
mary 55
henry 20
caroline 20
james 15
edmund 12

in woolbeding 1841

a john boswell 25
jane 20
fanny 4 months


can only see those boswells in 1841.maybe they will come in handy. there are a few interesting ones married in that area.

Hi

would it be possible to look me up a couple of marriages on the Sussex marriages cd please?
I'm after a marriage between John De Pau (De Paw) and Amy sometime in the late 1600's. I know John remarries in Rye to Mary Barham but cannot find his first marriage.
Secondly i'm after the marriage of John Waters who married Elizabeth circa 1760's.

Thankyou

Hello Jen - I have just realised that I did not reply to thank you for your information provided on 22/08/08. I am very sorry. It's quite unlike me.

The information was very helpful.

At the risk of outstaying my welcome could I please ask you again to look at any marriages of Betteridge, Betheridge, Betridge, Bettridge, Batteridge, Betterridge or Battridge in the whole of Sussex over the same period. I'm sure there will be only a few.

I shall be very grateful.

Hi Jen

Could you look up the following marriage please.

I have a Richard Grainger born 1777 who married a Sarah Unknown?she was born c1778.They had their 1st child in 1800 called George Grainger.George was born in Funtington,Sussex also.

Richard was born and died in Funtington,Sussex.He died there in 1848.I would presume the marriage was in Funtington also.

Thanks very much.

Hi Jen

Thanks so much for your assistance with the marriage of Samuel Bowles and Lois Wood. I am not sure about the other Samuel Bowles - I'm not sure but I think the father was John Bowles and his wife was Mary - I will have to take a further look into this. Thanks also for the baptism I will look at this and see if I think they are part of my family.
Many thanks for your help. I may be back in touch.

Best wishes
Mary

Hi Jenny
I have taken a good look at all the record you have sent and also checked out on ancestry in the census records and I am pretty sure that Samuel Bowles & Sarah King married 1803 in Brightling is the father of Samuel Bowles born 1814. Having seen that Jesse Bowles and Sarah Bowles were witnesses at the wedding on 29th Aug 1835 - it must be the same family. It also shows my Samuel Bowles parents as Samuel & Sarah. Really appreciate your help.
Can I ask where the CDs can be obtained from with this information.
Best wishes
