Heathfield Parish Registers

[CH1234]

Hi Chris

I'm new to this forum and I wondered if this thread is still active? If so, is it possible please for you to check whether there are any of the
BAWCOMB/BALCOMB/BAUCOMB (or likely variants) family in Heathfield?  They had property or land in the area in the 1600s.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks and regards

Hi CH1234

First of all welcome to Rootschat and especially the Sussex Boards.

Later on this evening I will do the search you requested and all being well, post the results in the morning - when they were transcribed they were entered into a word document instead of excel or other database, which makes them harder to search

Thank you very much Chris, I appreciate that.

I hope I'm not giving you too much work.

Hi Chris

Did you have any luck with my Bawcomb/Balcombs in Heathfield - or have they done their usual disapppearing act?

Hi Chris1234
Are you still there?  First I am curious as to how you were donated these wonderful transcripts, and thank you for caring for them, and sharing with the rest of us.
I am wondering if you would be able to check for me for JENNINGS who lived in tiny Heathfield during 1700's and 1800's.   My grgrgrandfather William Jennings was born in april 1811 to William and Mary.   I think they are the William and Mary who were married c 1809, but can't find any other children baptised before or after William.   Neither can I find Mary's maiden name, or William's history.    My line have been Gardners since early 1800's.   
Thanks so much,
Wendy

Hi
Have you thought of joining the Sussex Family History Group?   For a modest subscription you get access to lots of transcriptions of parish registers.  The only marriage of a William Jennings to a Mary on the Sussex Marriage Index is to Mary Carter 14 Oct 1797 at Eastbourne.   He is a Private in the Royal Artillery.  It does not give a marriage c1809.  Where did you get that information?

Good evening, I wondered if you were able to give me some assistance.  I have been found an entry for the marriage of a William Jarvis and a Philadelphia Jackson in 1799 in Heathfield, I am looking for all the information I can get.  William was my 5 x ggf.  In 1841 they are still living and William's occupation is broom maker in Cuckfield.  I have looked and found a few Jarvis's born in Heathfield but have not found William yet. in 1841 William is reporting to be 62, putting birth abt 1779, when they were married and taking Philadelphia's age away from 1841 it makes her 15 at marriage therefore birth around 1784.  Now William's children were born in Worth and Slaugham, looking at a settlement examination of 1810 he was still in Worth but in 1810 his child born in Slaugham, although I can find no baptism, i suppose it possible that they actually still lived in Worth.

Many Thanks
Paul

My copies of the Heathfield Baptism, Marriage and burial records only cover the period 1613 through to 1753; so not of much use to you.  The name JARVIS does appear quite regularly throughout them though, so it is quite possible as someone else suggested that the family originated in that area.

Sorry Chris should have taken notes on your dates.  Do you know of anyone who might be able to help me with the dates I have provided.
