Post by: Megan Hodges on Wednesday 26 December 07 00:52 GMT (UK)

Happy Boxing Day to you all,

I am looking for the date of christening for Harriet/t Manser daughter of Stephen Manser and Dorothy nee Ransom.  They were married June 8 1835 in Bexhill.  Harriet/t is believed born between 1835 and arrival in Australia in 1837.

Also christening of father Stephen Manser in or about Brede c 1814 parents Thomas & Keturah.

Any help gratefully appreciated.   :)

Hi Meegan

Have you tried www.familyhistoryonline.co.uk

although there is a small charge for looking at records, coverage for Sussex is very good.

Good luck

Kerry
