I am looking for the parents of Jane Ellis Heasman.
On the Weald database http://theweald.org/sitesearchb.asp
she is born 1799 and christened 27.2.1799 source Hartfield Parish records.
However, the parents are either Samuel Heasman and Sarah Weeden or Samuel Heasman and Elizabeth Ellis. :-\ Both Samuel's are different but are related, source Hartfield Parish records.
I have checked Ancestry and found a birth record for Jane with parents Samuel and Elizabeth, so the Samuel and Sarah "could be" an error.
Before dismissing this as such, could someone check for me please?

The SFHG Database had the parents as Samuel & Elizabeth.

Thankyou both.
It seems that Samuel & Elizabeth is correct, so now I can "dig" for Samuel and Sarah. :)

Hi floggle toggle,
The Samuel Heasman who married Elizabeth Ellis was the son of Samuel and Sarah (nee Wheatley) Heasman and he was baptised at East Grinstead on 10/10/1762. Sarah Wheatley was born in Wivilsfield, nearby, I haven't yet found their marriage but they had the following children in addition to Samuel, all baptised at East Grinstead:
John bp. 30/1/1761
Sarah bp. 1/1/1765
Edward Wheatley bp 17/2/1768
Ann bp. 25/7/1770
William bp. 24/2/1773
James bp. 30/7/1775
Sussanah bp. 2/2/1785
I am descended from Mary, the daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth who was baptised 10/4/1796 at Hartfield. I've gone back another seven generations from Samuel senior, if you want to pm me I'd be very happy to pass on the details :)
