Suffolk Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Dunwich PR - DIX
« on: Friday 03 September 10 22:01 BST (UK)  »
Hi Dave

Joseph Dix did marry a Mary, but it appears she was previously named Cooper, not Harber. They are my 4 x great grandparents.

I have Mary's death record, she died on Jersey in 1861 whilst visiting one of her sons, Frederick, a wine merchant. Jersey records always show the woman's maiden name & it is clearly Cooper, as is her description as"Mary Cooper, relict of Joseph" in the obituary in the local Jersey newspaper.

I would be happy to share information with you regarding the Suffolk Dixes.

Sussex Lookup Requests / Re: Earliest census available for Sussex?
« on: Tuesday 14 March 06 00:09 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Chris

I have Isaac in Hailsham in 1841. However, he may have been in Heathfield or Wilmington prior to that.

I am also looking for John Funnell (b. 1811 approx) & James Funnell (b. 1815 approx) his sons.

I am desperate to find John's baptism too (In Eastbourne). He was the only one baptised there, all the rest were Chiddingly or Wilmington.
Will the LDS request the Baptisms for Eastbourne if I ask them, or are they not available to view do you know?

Thanks
Chilljoan

Hi Chris

My Funnells were based around  Chiddingly, Wilmington & Hailsham mainly. I am looking for any Isaac Funnell/Funnel in particular.
Thanks,

Sussex Lookup Requests / Re: Eastbourne Baptism look up please

Hi Andrea
Yes that is him on the 1851 census, then he appears with the whole family (m-i-law, mother) in 1861.

That could be his parents marriage as I know his mother was Elizabeth from the census. I have his marriage cert (he married at 50!) His mother was from Heathfield. Is there any other info of the marriage, ie witnesses, their parents names, etc ? Sorry to ask, I don't know much about Parish records & what info is on them !

I still would like confirmation of his parents from the Eastbourne Records, though just to be sure I have the right one.
Thanks

Hi
I'm new, so please excuse me if i've done this wrong! I need to find the parents of John FUNNELL born approx 1811 in Eastbourne, Sussex. He does not appear on the IGI at all. I live too far away to travel to the Records office. Can anyone have a look in the Parish Records for Eastbourne for me??
Many thanks
Chilljoan
