My Poate/Poat/Pote and Whittington/Whitington families come from Upwaltham in the Westhampnett district.
I have used the familysearch.org IGI with (unusually for my researches) excellent results and found -
Jesse Whittington b Chilgrove c1767 &
Sarah (nee Spooner) " b unknown(but Kirdford 1776) c1771 in the 1851 census in Eastdean
They married 1794 in Kirdford and her father was Henry Spooner mother Eliz'th. Is there a Henry Spooner marriage recorded in the area?
There was another Jesse Whitington marriage to Anne - have you dates of that marriage possibly in Petworth?
I'm trying to sort out who was who so any help would be gratefully received. Jill

Thank you Lesley.
Thank you Andrea.
Every little bit of information will help sort out the siblings and names that crop up in later census.
