I am looking for any information on BRIGGMAN or BRIGMAN in the Mayfield, Rotherfield, Warbleton, or Alfriston areas between approximately 1575-1700. They were poor undertenants/cottars and maybe weavers. At least a couple of them were outlaws (one was transported). They married into the Moone, Latter, and Gilford families.
Any tidbit is graciously appreciated and, of course, I'm happy to share!!
