Post by: lashmar on Sunday 13 January 08 12:32 GMT (UK)
Would some kind person please look on the 1841 and 51 Census for:

Henry and Susan VERRALL -  Both possibly born in HAMSEY

IGI shows they married in 1831 in Sussex.   

Many thanks
Regards
Kay

Hi Tati
Thanks for the census details - could Susans' birth place possibly be Barcombe?

Kay

Just checked 1861 - Barcombe indeed. She's 69 now and still Sarah (I saw a possible marriage, 1845 I believe, for a Henry Verrall to possibly Sarah Ann Chapman)

Kay,

Have you seen this site:

http://www.bandhpast.co.uk/

Take your time to explore it - you can find a map which shows where Henry was living, how much it's value was and lots of social and local histroy for Barcombe and Hamsey.

Tati
Many thanks for the information you have given me.  Could I be really cheeky and ask for the full 1861 details please if you have them.

Nell
Yes I have had a look at that website - pick it up when you posted it on the Resource board - very informative.

Thank you again both
Regards
Kay

Hello. I stumbled across this. I live at Boundary Hall in the Parish of Hamsey in Sussex, where Henry and Sarah Verrall lived, along with Henry's mother, Lucy, from 1851-1891.

They are buried at St Peter's Church in Hamsey (not the Victorian one in Offham).

It's not posh at all, Katy! If you're in the area, do drop in for a look around. Ian
