Hi
I am looking for any Baptisms and Burials for the family of John and Fanny Simmonds from Sidlesham Sussex between 1870 and 1883 your assistance would be much appreciated.

Sidlesham parish lies in the Registration District of Westhampnett.
So this marriage looks a good bet:
September quarter 1872
Westhampnett RD vol 2b, page 505
Simmonds, John
And, on the same page,
Baker, Fanny
-
Potential baptisms, from GRO:
SIMMONDS, WILLIAM BAKER
GRO Reference: 1873 M Quarter in WESTHAMPNETT Volume 02B Page 355
SIMMONDS, JOHN BAKER
GRO Reference: 1875 M Quarter in WESTHAMPNETT Volume 02B Page 342
SIMMONDS, WILLIAM BAKER
There are other births, but in Brighton or Greenwich.

Hi.
Thank you all very much for your help. the marriage of John & Fanny in 1872 is correct and also the two children William 1873 and John 1875. John died in 1878. I think the family moved to Brighton in about 1876 so would it be possible to look at the baptisms & burials for Brighton between 1876 & 1882.Once again thank you.
