I have traced one of my lines back to DANIEL GOACHER and MARY BARNARD who were married at Pullborough in 1751. HUGH GOACHER bapt. Amberley 1751, married SARAH WITTON at Steyning in 1779.
Is anyone connected to these families? I am in Australia.

Hi Robertt!
Thanks for your reply. I don't have a Thomas Goacher, however I have a Catherine King who married George Peskett in 1830 at Arundel.

I have a Jane Goacher bp 1737, Wisborough Green, daughter of Hugh Gocher. She died in 1800 and married John Lickfold but I haven't investigated further as it is the Lickfold family I am particularly interested in. Jane and John had 8 children.
Looks as if your Hugh may have been a brother or nephew?

Thank you for your reply. I have only got back so far to Hugh Goacher bp 1751 whose parents were Daniel Goacher and Mary Bernard. That is very interesting about Jane, My Hugh was not her father, but there could be a connection there, given the name. Hugh is not all that common in this family. They are all over the place!!!!!!

Dear Robert
Thanks for that. George died by1841, as in that census Catherine is listed as a widow.
If you want any more details on this family, I will give you what I have, although it is not all that much.

I have no connection with any of the above Goacher families, but during my architectural research I acquired a photograph taken outside Batchelors Farm (now Batchelors) in Emms Lane, Barns Green, near Horsham, Sussex, an ancient farmhouse dating to the year 1610.
The photograph, was taken in the 1890s and shows a family sitting either side of the entrance door. It seems virtually certain from the census of 1891, that the group includes the tenant farmer, William Gocher, and his wife, Jane, with two of their daughters and grandchildren. William and Jane had first occupied the farmhouse around 1850, and it was here that William farmed up to 100 acres of land. The Gocher family remained at Batchelors until William died early in 1892 at the age of 78, so that it would not have been long before his family would have had to move elsewhere. The farm was then converted to a well-appointed residence by the distinguished architect, Blunden Shadbolt R.I.B.A., and later became the home of a Spanish prince.
If would be most happy to e-mail a copy of this photograph to you or any one interested in this family.
With warm good wishes

Dear David
It has been some years since my post on the Goacher Family from Amberley.
I have revisted several of my families, including the Goacher Family.
With the advent of DNA I think you and I have a match on Ancestry.
