Title: Some more new Sussex CDs
Post by: Stovepipe on Wednesday 03 December 08 12:18 GMT (UK)

These transcriptions of Sussex parish registers are recent additions to the list of PRTS publications.  See http://www.prtsoc.org.uk/

One or other of them may be of interest to readers of this board.  I ordered the Mayfield volume yesterday - as a customer of the society I've always found them to give very good service.

Linchmere, St Peter
PRTS volume number: SXW079
Baptisms: 1565-1602, 1605-1716, 1742-1901
Banns: 1653-1657, 1755-1902
Marriages: 1566-1725, 1753-1899
Burials: 1566-1697, 1714-1717, 1742-1902

Mayfield, St Dunstan's (transcribed by the SFHG)
PRTS volume number: SXE080
Baptisms: 1571-1812
Banns: N/A
Marriages: 1571-1812
Burials: 1571-1812

Yapton, St Mary
PRTS volume number: SXE081
- can't find the dates for this volume.

(The Linchmere volume seems to be missing from the PRTS on-line ordering system.)

Thanks for that Stovepipe

I think I'll ask for Mayfield for Christmas, it is one I need to look at currently.

Hi Stovepipe

I'm hoping that Father Christmas will bring me a couple  but I didnt put Mayfield
on my list - so would you kindly look on it for me for our Holmes and my Mascalls.
If there are some I will purchase it.
Thanks
Sue

Hi Kerry,

Hope you have as much luck with it as I'm having (it arrived today - and I only ordered it the day before yesterday!).  Making great progress on one of my most important lines - gone back two more generations and firming up several connections that were previously just tentative.

Hi Sue,

There aren't that may Holmes entries - maybe 10 or so.  Quite a few more Mascalls, but still not a very great number.  Please let me know what in particular you'd like me to look up.  If I recognize any Holmes as being ours I'll let you know in any case.

Regards,
Stovepipe

Crikey at this time of year that is good delivery.

Had a look last night and identified a couple which would be really useful for me.  Will put in an order.

Hi, I've been looking at the available CD's but do you know whether Lodsworth comes under Petworth, Midhurst or neither?
Thanks

Hi Zoe

I found this brilliant page on Genuki last night answering someone else's similar query http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/midhurst.html

It seems it is in Midhurst

Hi Stevepipe

I'm looking for a marriage of Thomas Mascal father to my Jonadab Mascall born in burwash 1737
mother Catherine ?.
There is a Thomas born 1705 under the Heathfield Parish Record father Richard but no marriage
of Thomas and Catherine.
On the Sussex Apprentice and Masters 1710-1752 (Mascall Thomas son of Richard of Heathfield
to Richard Durant of Chidingly -wheelwright - 1724)
So if you could check the Mayfield Parish Record that would be great.
Regards
Sue

Hi Kerry,
Thanks for the link and info  :) I have one more question though (sorry), the link says Lodsworth was in the district of Midhurst 1837 -1935 but what about before 1837? I had a look but couldn't find anything.

Thanks again  ;D

I don't think they had registration districts before 1837 because that was when the official records for bmds started.  I guess it was just Lodsworth in Sussex. ???

From the introduction of the Midhurst PRTS CD it talks about St Mary Magdalene & St Denis Parish Church and St Francis of Assisi Catholic Church as well as a Baptist Chapel and Calvanistic Chapel. All churches in Midhurst. There is no mention of Lodsworth records on the CD unfortunately.

Hi Kerry and swebby thank you for your helpful replies  :)
I've come to a bit of a full stop in Lodsworth, Easbourne and west Chiltington around the 1800's so was hoping that Father Christmas might have been able to help by purchasing some of the CDs on Stovepipes original link, perhaps I'll contact the PRTsoc.

Thanks
Zoe

http://www.gravelroots.net is not a bad site for the area, it has a lot of information and I did manage to find an ancestor on it, just one mind you !

Hi Swebby, thanks for the link, looks like a good site and hey finding one ancestor is better than nothing  ;D

Edit to say that I have emailed the PRTsoc to ask if any of the available CDs contain Lodsworth etc so will wait and see

Crikey Ian thanks for the tip!

I ordered Mayfield and Cowfold yesterday and they have just arrived with the Postman!  :o

That has got to be some sort of record, particularly in December  ;D
