I know that Robert LUSTED was baptised on 27 Feb 1820 at Heathfield, Sussex, with his mother given as Emma.  Robert married Jane COLINS between Jul and Sep 1842, at Hailsham, Sussex. Robert died in 1899. Robert and Jane had eight children.

George LUSTED b. 1844 at Heathfield, m. 1873 to Jane MEPHAM, d 1907 at Uckfield.
Emma LUSTED b. 1847 at Heathfield, m. , d. 1919 at Uckfield.
Robert LUSTED b. 14 Oct 1849 at Heathfield, m. 26 May 1876 at Waipahi, New Zealand to Emily CODLIN, d. 1900 at Balclutha, New Zealand.
Jane LUSTED b. 1852 at Hailsham, m. 24 Dec 1871 to Alfred HAZELDEN at Mayfield, d. 1932 London.
Henry LUSTED b. 1855 atHeathfield, m. 25 Nov 1877 to Emma WILLIAMS at Brighton, d. 06 Oct 1920 at Ticehurst.
Mary Ann LUSTED b. 1859 at Heathfield, m. , d. 24 Aug 1893 at Wye, Kent.
Caroline LUSTED b. 1862 at Steyning, m. 1903 to , d. 1935 Hastings, Sussex.
William LUSTED b. 1865 at Mayfield, d. 1866 at Uckfield.

The big question is; was Robert LUSTED's (1820-1899) mother Emma, actually Emma LUSTED (1801-1827), and was Robert LUSTED illegitimate?

Brian...

I have an Emma LUSTED born to Robert LUSTED and Catherine PERRY. Emma was baptised on 30 Aug 1801 at Heathfield, Sussex.

Does anyone have knowledge of Emma?
