Hi again Sue9

My electronic search of the baptism Registers of Heathfield 1612 t0 1753 revealed the following:

Bapt   24 Nov 1644 Elizabeth the daughter of William Dawe
Bapt   21 Aug 1699 Elizabeth the daughter of Allen Daw by Jane his wife
Bapt   22 Dec 1704 An unbaptized child of William Dawe junior by Jane his wife

Dont think any of them are suitable - but you never know

1618 Bapt 7 June Margarett the daughter of John Harmer
1622 Bapt 24 Nov Elisabeth Harmer the daughter of John Harmer
1644 Bapt 9 June John the son of William Harmer
1649 Bapt 11 Oct William the son of William Harmer
1649 Bapt 10 Mch Jonah the son of Anthony Harmer
1650 Bapt 23 Mch William the son of William Harmer
1651 Bapt 2 Nov Mary the daughter of Anthony Harmer
1653 Bapt 28 Aug Mary the daughter of William Harmer
1661 Bapt 18 Apr Mergery the daughter of William Harmer

1751 Bapt 12 Dec Elizabeth the daughter of Thomas Harmer by Mary his wife
1753 Bapt 18 Mch Joseph the son of Joseph Harmer by Ann his wife

They look pretty well spread out over the period of that register transcription - but there is a big gap between 1665 nd 1703 - will have to check that bit again

Bapt   22 Dec 1704 An unbaptized child of William Dawe junior by Jane his wife

This is an odd one.  The "unbaptized" comment is more likely to be found against a burial entry than a baptism, isn't it?

But many thanks, Chris - I have Parsons & Dawes in my tree, too!

Hi Sue9

Looks like we have two families here - possibly father and son because there is a generation between them (unless Thomas became a widower and married a very young wife)

1708 Bapt 6 Jan Elizabeth the daughter of Thomas Parson by Elizabeth his wife (in BT only)
1710 Bapt 9 Sep Thomas the son of Thomas Parson by Elizabeth his wife (in BT only)
1714 Bapt 2 May Grace the daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth Parsons

1734  Bapt 25 Oct Henry the son of Thomas Parsons by Elizabeth his wife
1737 Bapt 3 Apr Sarah the daughter of Thomas Parsons by Elizabeth his wife
1739 Bapt 17 May Grace the daughter of Thomas Parsons by Elizabeth his wife
1741 Bapt 4 Sep Hannah the daughter of Thomas Parsons by Elizabeth his wife

Hope it helps

Hi Stovepipe,

Nice to hear from you again - yes, me thinks it should have been in the burial register and we know they very often put birth, marriage and burials in the same register - so who knows?

Got to dig a few more 'Harmer' out for Kerryb after dinner - is there anything you want whilst I am at it ?

Chris in 1066

[Chris in 1066Land]

Kerryb

Yes that was correct - I slowly scrolled through the transcriptions between 1665 and 1703 and there were no Harmer or variant baptisms.

Strange that

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your kind offer - and, believe it or not, the Harmers would be good for me too.  I strongly suspect that my ancestor William Upfield married an Elizabeth Harmer of Heathfield (but her baptism would have been well after 1753).

Cheers,
Stovepipe
