I haven't got anything else to contribute. The chapel at which my ancester was minister, was the one in my photo and as far as I am concerned that is all there is to it :) :) Thanks for your interest everyone. 'little londoner' I will get back to you later

Sorry didn't mean to offend, just curious as to why the building I drive past most days didn't look like the building in the photo.  But if it a rebuild in 1902 that explains that! And therefore no point in me offering to take anymore photos.

Thank you.

was the new chapel built on the site of the old one? looks like there is a bit of difference in the distance from the road.

Doogie we are just trying to help sorry if you don't seeit that way and it sounds as if you don't the thread was started by Little Londoner on the subject of the chapel at Heathfield and our replies reflect this. your relative was a minster at the chapel in the photo you posted we appreciate this but that was not the subject of this thread.

and apparently the providence chapel at flimwell does still exist you can view it from the air on google maps.
 
, for the FOUNDATION STONE on which my direct ancestor's name was recorded
James was probably buried in Heathfield because there was no burial ground for his denomination in Flimwell He is recorded as a Dissident Preacher.
but you don't actually know that

I'm not a bit offended and did not want to offend anyone else, hence the smilies.

I just can't think of anything more that I can contribute. The Rev James is just another man in my family tree.

Incidentally Toni

Drove past the chapel on the way home on Wednesday and caught a glimpse of the name and it was either The Old Chapel or Ye Old Chapel  ;D
