Hi Anna

Thanks for the PM, glad the info is useful.

I think your Charles is most  likely to be the Bepton one rather than the Lurgashall one - he gives his birthplace on censuses as Bep(t)on or Headley. The whole of Henry and Sarah/Charlotte's family seem to move to Headley.

Have you looked for a Lurgashall Charles on censuses? or a burial for him?

Hi Anna

Checked a few more things for you

Marriage Kirdford
19 Jun 1793 Henry Courtnage of Petworth to Sarah Mitchell otp
Witnesses Thomas Courtnage and Shadrack Mitchell

Which is great given the 1813 Bepton baptism of Shadrach Courtnage and the presence of a Thomas Cortnage in Lurgashall :D

Lurgashall
No extra info on the baptisms and no early burial I could see for the Lurgashall Charles :(

Marriage
21 Jan 1795 Thomas Courtnage Bach otp to Sarah Enticknap spinster otp witnesses Henry Courtneg and Mary Enticknap

Like the presence of Henry  and that he signs himself Courtneg which is how the name was spelt at Charles Bepton baptism :D

Hello,
My name is Lesley and I am also researching the Courtnage/Courtenage families in Lurgashall/Bepton.  I can see you are researching the same and wondered if we could exchange information please? I came across this website by complete accident and hoping this message gets to you.

Hi Lesley

Welcome to Rootschat :D

Anna hasn't been around for a couple of months - but hopefully she will be notified of new replies and come back. Meanwhile if you need anything checked on the Bepton/Lurgashall registers I can do that for you when I next go to the West Sussex Records Office - I'm not sure when that will be though.

Hello Jan,
I was so pleased to see that someone had responded to this. I was in the Sussex Records Office myself a couple of weeks ago. There was so much I wanted to look at, but simply didn't have the time as I live in Wales. My husband is a Courtney and used to live in Sussex.  Are you related to the Courtney's yourself and is there anyone you are specifically looking for? I would be more than happy to share what I have with you and to let you know where I am stuck. Thank you very much for replying to me.

Lesley

Hi Lesley,

I'm not related to the family I was just helping Anna out with some look-ups.

Where are you stuck? Maybe I or other Rootschat members can help - we enjoy a bashing down brickwalls ;D

Hello Jan,
I am so pleased to hear back from you and extremely grateful for any help.  I have a Henry Courtnage who married a Charlotte Hounsome on the 13th July 1816 in Bepton, Sussex. I am confident this Henry courtnage was married before to Sarah Mitchell. I took an extract from the Parish Register, so I know he was a bachelor (unless he was lying of course) when he married sarah on 17th June 1783 at Kridford.  They had 7 children together - all their baptisms accounted for up to Shadrach on 20th June 1813. By process of illimination I believe this Henry came from Farnhurst.  I have a bapstism of 21st February 1768 for him, but I need to be sure I have the right Henry. Sarah died when Shadrach was 16 months old and was buried at Bepton on 27th October 1814 leaving him with a string of young children. Somehow he ended up marrying Charlotte Hounsome in 1816 and went on to have a lot of other children.  Eliza 1817, John 1819, Geoorge 1822, James 1825, Daniel 1826 (My x 2 Gt.Grandfather), Frederick 1827, Caroline 1828,
I then have a Caroline 1828, Another Eliza or Elizabeth in1830, James 1832, Eleanor 1834, Henry 1835 and Emily in 1838.  I've obviously gone horribly wrong with the last 5 as Charlotte couldn't possibly have been having all these babies!! I believe Charlotte was baptised on 20th Sept 1789 at Cocking. Her husband Henry was at least 20 years older than her. I've looked at this until i'm blue in the face and its driving me mad, but I can't put it down.
Please excuse this long message, but I would welcome any help you can offer.
With grateful thanks, Lesley
