COMPLETED West Sussex RO June

[Stovepipe]

Hi Jan,

Excellent help, as always - thank you.

Two marriages on the same day merged into one by the transcriber who thereby got both of 'em wrong - that's something I didn't expect, but it solves the problem wonderfully.  And the brother & sister marrying sister & brother scenario looks promising - something for me to investigate.

Best wishes,
Stovepipe

It is very odd - I think I shall have to have another squint, the registers were very faint and maybe what looked like June was Jan, which would make more sense! There weren't many, so I'll see if I can see anything next week. I must admit to not being very good with 16th century writing

Jan

Much appreciated,

I usually find it easier to read upside down and squinting sideways not easy is it!!!

Hi Ravelin

Just re-read your request - I looked at the fiche of original parish registers not the Bishop's Transcripts as you had asked. Sorry. 

The BT are only available on microfilm or by ordering up the original documents which I don't do to keep things straight forward and maximise the number of look-ups I can do. The mention of transcripts at the start of thread refers only to various paper transcripts done of some years for some parishes. Sorry for the confusion - I shall add "not Bishop's Transcripts" when I post my next offer

Hello Jan

Don't worry about not looking at the Bishops Transcripts for Linch or Linchmere. This ancestry mularky can get very confusing at times. An easy mistake to be made. 

It is very good of you to do these lookup offers in the first place.

Thanks for your help.

Hello Jan

Thanks for the information on Upper Beeding Potter family.  This does seem to confirm that they moved to another Parish and could possibly be my ancestors in Lewes.

Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks Jan, very much for looking those up.  The burial entries were really helpful too, and yes they were all my lot.  Just about all the Dancy's in the Sussex censuses, bar just one, were from the same family.

I would have replied sooner, but for some reason I missed the alert notice that the thread was being updated!
