The Common Room / SURREY MILITIA from the 16th century
« on: Friday 06 September 24 09:52 BST (UK)  »
Hello!
I realise I probably need to go to the Surrey History Centre, but thought it worth posing the question on here first.
Does anyone have access to any such records?
I'm seeking details for any of the SANDERS, SANDER, SAUNDRE, SAUNDRES family (who lived in Charlwood, and Ewell, and Horley - all near Reigate) who served in a county / local militia.
They were landed gentry, many knighted.
Any details no matter how small, will be much appreciated.

All replies are much appreciated as they help to build up a picture of the family.
I've got in touch with the Surrey library service to find out if they have any books that may help me find out more about Odworth, the manor of Court, the Manor of Lodge etc
There has to be some information out there somewhere!

Thank you for your replies, it was appreciated. The SANDER / SANDERS were a family of status, reflected in the fact that the earlier generations were Yeoman and lived in manor houses (or similarly large) in or around Reigate with names such as 'Court', 'Lodge', 'Stable Farm', 'Collikmoor Farm' etc
Due to their place in Surrey society, I wonder if anyone has already researched them? Or knows of any publications which may help me learn more about their residences.
The internet is sadly devoid of information.
Thank you.

Surrey / SANDERS from Reigate, Burstow and Leigh, Surrey
« on: Monday 26 August 24 14:51 BST (UK)  »
I’m currently researching the SANDERS family from the Reigate area and due to a lack of information on-line, wonder if anyone knows anything about them or has access to records that would help me. Apart from BMD entries in parish entries, I just cannot locate any information about the Sanders family.
I'm particularly keen to learn more about where they lived in terms of locality and size.
Generation 1: John Sanders (d1632) and his wife.                                                                                            1599 and 1612 John was of Odworth, Yeoman.
Generation 2: John Sanders (1612-1644) and his wife Bridget Bancke.                                                    Have no information.
Generation 3: Richard Sanders (1638-1716) and his wife Mary Peeler.                                               Lived in Burstow, but have no specific information.
Generation 4: Richard Sanders (1673-1706) and his wife Elizabeth Lambert.                                        Freeholder and Copyholder in Burstow. Described as a Yeoman.
Generation 5: John Sanders (1705-1736) and his wife Mary Hill.                                                                       1706 described as a Yeoman. 1736 referred to as Captain John Sanders.                                                    Also recorded as a ‘gentleman’ of Woodhatch.
Generation 6: Johnson Sanders (1730-1778) and his wife Martha Charlwood.                                          Recorded as being ‘of Lodge’.  This, I believe, was a manor house but did he occupy it himself? 1775 Freeholder with property in Charlwood .
Generation 7: Thomas Sanders (1763-1840) and his wife Mary Ware.                                              Described as ‘of Court’ but did he occupy what, I believe, was a manor house itself? How large was it and where?
Generation 8: James Anders (1783-1837) and his wife Mary Dungate.                                               1816 Bailiff at Court Lodge. Does this refer to a smaller residence and not the manor house itself?
Generation 9: Richard Sanders (1817-1892) and his wife Mary Ann Knight.                                         1847 Stable House, Dorking. 1871 Collikmoor Farm. 1881 Breakspear Farm, Capel.
Generation 10: Thomas Sanders (1844-?) and his wife Martha Rose.                                                          1871 Upper Meridan, Dorking.

Any information will be really appreciated.

Thank you for your replies, they have given me much to think about. I certainly value your thoughts as, for instance, I hadn't even considered there were two Mary Ware's. I'll see what I can work out and let you know!
Huge thanks.

Hello!
I'm very confused and hope someone can shed some light on this couple marrying seven years before the Marriage Bond and Allegation was issued.
May 1783: Thomas Sanders married Mary Ware who was a minor by licence in Reigate, Surrey.
1783-1789: They had three children.
Dec 1790: Marriage bond and allegation issued for Thomas Sanders and Mary Ware of Rygate (variant for Reigate).
Has anyone come across this before?
I have images of both the marriage certificate and the bond but they're too large to attach here.
Any information / thoughts will be much appreciated.
Thank you.

If anyone knows what the R.A. was doing out in Ferozepore, India, in June 1929, I'd love to know!
