Ancestry NON CONFORMIST
 Piece 2729: Horsham General Baptist Chapel, 1688, 1706-1836
Hannah Redman Birth Date 30 Dec 1795 Sussex,
Denomination   General Baptist Father   Edward Redman Mother Hannah Redman
It doesn`t look like burials have been digitised .

Distance to Billinghurst c 7 miles.

In the 1750s the Baptist Chapel was established and in the early 1800s the Congregational Chapel was founded. The chapel has a large graveyard to the front and side.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billingshurst_Unitarian_Chapel
The cottage-like building was erected in 1754 for General Baptists, hence its original name of the Billingshurst General Baptist Chapel
The chapel, also known as the Billingshurst Unitarian and Free Christian Church, is one of the oldest Nonconformist places of worship in the district of Horsham—

Could Hannah be here ?


Yes very possible.

I found Hannah Redman on a Ancestry tree, klMorrow. There is no burial information.
But it must come from somewhere.
Hannah Brockhurst

BIRTH ABT. 1765 • Sussex, England

DEATH 23 APR 1802 •

Thanks. I have learnt the hard way that although info on trees sounds ok it must be backed up with concrete proof.  So many people take info from other trees thinking it’s true  . Many years ago I was one of those people.

Just discovered Ancestry has a separate set called Billingshurst in Woollen - as if it was a place name.

Not come across Woollen but Billingshurst is surrounded by small settlements and villages.

Woollen refers to woollen shrouds, you often see "buried in woollen" after the name and date of the deceased. Ancestry clearly think Woollen is part a place name ( Billingshurst in Woollen) - like Pool in Wharfedale, Bilton in (the) Ainsty etc

That’s very interesting thanks. And very confusing for researchers who see death iin Woollen and then look for a place called Woollen which doesn’t exist.

Ancestry.
 England & Wales, Non-Conformist and Non-Parochial Registers, 1567-1936
Horsham.
Has Details of Baptisms of children of Hannah and Edward Redman.  Also from his second wife Jane.
Geneanet has a death for Hannah Redman 2 April 1802 Horsham. ?
You might already have this.

Me again, lol.  Been mulling this over and wondering if you could send me details of the death you found.  All I found were deaths  on family trees but with no documentary support.

Yes I have this but thanks anyway.

All I want is death date . At least from the will of her uncle I now know she has actually died. For years I have been searching for her death not knowing if she just disappeared or did die.

Will proved 1806 so presumably uncle died that year. Will written 24 Aug 1804. Maybe uncle changed his will then because he heard Hannah had died.
Need to find when her husband Edward Redman remarried

Her husband Edward re married Jane Greenfield in 1804 in Billingshurst  they had 7 children and emigrated to US in 1820 and settled in Posey Indiana.
