Marriage lookup - Henry Floate COMPLETED

[downside]

Hi Mum44

Yes that looks about right.  I only had his birth as 1803 but no other details.

There are many variations of the spelling of Floate so that is not a problem.

I do have a note that the Hannah is Hannah Elmes but no further details.

I can prove to this person on genes that I do have the right ancestors for Henry Floate.

Thankyou for the information.

There are a number of apparent siblings - at least,  a Henry Floate (with the e ) and Hannah baptised 9 children between 1801 and 1815 in Wiston (which place appears as the parish of bachelor Henry on Jane's post)

I must get a decent map!  How close to Piddinghoe is Wiston?

Those baps are all extracted.

There is a submitted marriage for Henry Float and Hannah Elmes 26 May 1800, but just Sussex  (beware the IGI submissions, say I !)

Beware the IGI submissions, say I ! ! !

A typical submission error - licence date instead of marrage date.

Thank you for the additional information (extra, extra bonus).

Wiston is not far from Washington. 

Piddinghoe is a long way (by horse-drawn cart) from Wiston.

There are a number of apparent siblings - at least,  a Henry Floate (with the e ) and Hannah baptised 9 children between 1801 and 1815 in Wiston

I think Sarah Floate 1820 Wiston is their final child.

Living in Washington, no discernable address

I think they lived in a place called Pigland, Washington.
