Chris just to say wat a great help u r to all of us on info for Lewes

First of all thank you for those compliments - it is nice to know that ones efforts are appreciated; but I love helping others research, so its no hardship at all.

All the info you want is in the East Sussex Record Office at the Maltings in Lewes - which by chance is virtually just across the road from St John Sub Castro and its Churchyard.

Yes, I would book a seat for Monday and then whilst there book up for the rest of the week as is necessary.  You can book a chair with an electric point for your computer so that you can tap it all in as you find it.

When you arrive on Monday, let the staff know what kind of records you want to look at, as a lot of records are not kept on site - they have to get them in which usually takes a couple of days.

Hope that helps

I have just looked at several other Church Burials in Lewes - i.e. St John Baptist Southover, St Michael South Malling, All Saints - none of them have any BISH burials - so it looks as though they stuck around the St John Sub Castro area.  That should shorten your search in the Church Registers

Hi Chris,

After rereading some info on Webb ancestors I realised that there might hopefully be one or two in Lewes.
In particular I am looking for Rose Ann Webb died 1936 and maybe her husband George Thomas Webb d 1948.
Of course any other Webbs may well be relevant so any info you have would be welcome.

regards
Sean
