Post number three...hopefully I can send you a PM now!!

[Paul Mower]

Hello John and all the other Field Searchers,
My name is Paul William Mower the son of May Florence Mower nee Field.of Battersea, London.
My Grandfather was John Thomas Field also of Battersea.
My Great Grandfather was Benjamin Field born 1853 in Ticehurst, Sussex.
The William born 1818 in your record is the brother of My Great Great Grandfather, Samuel born 1814 in Ticehurst.
From this point we are linked through the pedigree to Thomas Field, farmer of ( Lower Hazelhurst Farm,Ticehurst aka the Quarter), born 1773 in Wadhurst, Sussex and his wife Elizabeth Burges born 1784 also in Wadhurst.
The final link is Joseph Field born C1740 and his wife Martha Baker born C1740. That's as far as I can go!
From one Field distant cousin to another!
All the best in your quest!
 Kind regards, Paul from Telford, Shropshire, U.K.

Hi Paul,

Welcome to the Field search. You have got as far back as I have, Joseph Field (b 1740). It would be great to go back further but I have the inconvenience of a full time job which just seems to take up all my time unfortunately 

My link to you is William Field (b 1880) who is the father to my great grandfather Clarence (b 1854) He went on to have 9 children (7 surviving), one being my grandfather Ernest.

I am friends with another distant relation who I met through an RAF kids page on FaceBook. Her mothers name was the same as ours and they had also been to the same overseas postings as us. She mentioned that her family orginated from Ticehurst and that is where we made the connection. Her great grandfather is Jacob Field (b 1844) another son of William.

Please keep us updated if you manage to get any further than 1740. One day I will find the time!

Kind regards

Sallie
