Hi Sally,

Welcome to Rootschat,

Do you know this chap:
Ian Hilder
23a Grantham Bank, Barcombe
LEWES East Sussex
BN8 5DJ

He is a genealogist, member of AGRA, and he advertises on the web and in Family Tree Magazine.  He may well be a good starting point! Google his name to come up with further details.

Hi Sally,
There are 227 marriages on the Sussex marriage index for the name of HILDER, between 1547-1840, mostly in East Sussex, notably in MOUNTFIELD, 35 marriages.
Let me know if you want something specific,
Jane

Hi Sally,

Only been with Rootschat, since November, and have found it amazing - I am also researching the Hilder family name, as it is my mother in law's maiden name - Ian Hilder has given me some help, and I have filled in some gaps for him as well - perhaps we can help each other - my mother in law is
Dorothy Hilder, daughter of Bertram and Ellen, Bertram, was the son of
Lazarus and Charlotte Hilder - are any of these names familiar to you ?

kind regards
sandra
