Hello again,
Could I possibly trouble you for any M.I.'s that you have for the surname STANFORD in Southover, please?
Many thanks
Amy

Hi Amy

According to my database there is just one stone in Southover to the Stanfords

No 293 in St John the Baptist, Southover

Charles Stanford aged 85 - died 26th March 1895
Martha Stanford aged 96 - died 22nd November 1906

Unfortunately I do not have the full details - it is in my office at Lewes; will not be there till next Monday. (I only work one day per week on a Monday)

Is this who you were looking for

Thanks Chris,
Charles and Martha are both in my tree, although in in my direct line. Charles is the sibling of one of my direct line. I didn't have their dates of death. You have helped me already. If you have time next the M.I. would be great, but it is not essential. Thanks agian.

Thank you very much Chris.
Usually any STANFORD which appears in Lewes or Southover can be attached to my tree somewhere.
I shall find a home for these entries in my PAF file straight away.

Chris,

As ever, what can I say?  You have been of great help.
Yes, I would appreciate a picture of Gravestone No. 531 (Mary Ann Treadwell - St. John Sub Castro).

Many thanks yet once more - the work you put in is fantastic.

Best wishes,

Gloria

Chris,

John Tredwell was Mary Ann's second husband - I knew that someone by the name of Beach had been her first husband but had no other details till this. 

Many thanks yet again,
