[janan]

Hi

I shall be going to the West Sussex RO again towards the end of June.

I am happy to do simple Parish Register look-ups from available transcripts or fiche. Please post on this thread with as much info as possible and I will see what I can do.

Hi Jan

A death for David Goring from Worth. David was Baptised in 1792.

David`s youngest was Baptised in 1830.

On the SMI his Wife remarried at Worth in 1834,claiming to be a Spinster !!!!!

Thank-you

Hi Omega

I'll see if I can find a burial for him. Although if his wife claimed she was a spinster then maybe he left her rather than died. Could you post date of marriage please? Narrows down the timeframe for the search.

Hi Jan,

May I take up your generous offer?  (Yet again!)

Sullington Marriages 1754-1811, WSRO Ref Par 190/1/1/3 (2 fiche).

The SMI has the following marriage.

Place: Sullington, West Sussex
Date: 27 Feb 1786
Subject: John BURCHELL, bach
Spouse: Susan SEARLE, sp

The PRTS transcript of Sullington Marriages does not have this; instead it has the following.

27/02/1786, John SEARLE and Sarah BURCHELL, both single

I think the two entries refer to the same event and one (or both) is seriously in error.  I'd really like to know what the PR actually records for the marriage.  Who's the bride and who's the groom, and was the bride's given name Susan or Sarah?

Further info - the SFHG website does not record any SMI correction for the event; Sullington is not well-covered by the online IGI and the marriage cannot be found there.

Thanks in advance,
Stovepipe

Hi Jan,

Could you have a look for names of children baptised in St Nicholas Church in the parish of Worth to parents John Dancy and Eleanor.  Eleanor died on 12 Dec 1826 according to the headstone at St Nicholas Church, Worth. 

I have their children as
John born 1813 but died 1815 (buried in St Nicholas)
and then there is a male found in the 1841 born abt 1821 with them called "Lue Dancey" - never to be found or referenced again in any b/m/d records - intrigued ...
Michael
Sarah
Eleanor
Richard

I wonder if they had any other children or if they had another son John after their first son John died, and who this "Lue" was.

Many thanks
Penny

Hi Penny

Could you give me a bit more detail so I know what years to look at please.
Rough years of birth for the other children? Date of marriage for John and Eleanor?

Thanks

Jan

Not to worry have found the extra info on the IGI so will check it all for you and see if I can find the mysterious Lue
