Shermanbury deaths?
« on: Sunday 31 July 11 20:17 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have any access to Shermanbury (West Sussex) death records for the 18th century?  All those on Familysearch are 19th century. I live far from the area myself. The deaths I am searching for are:

Anthony and Sarah Henty between 1754 and 1776. There may be two individuals called Anthony and two called Sarah. I am interested in all of them.

Secondly I am seeking the deaths of another couple Bridget and William Britt 1711 or later. They were born circa 1680s so their deaths are not likely to be later than 1760s and were probably much sooner.

Any help with either or both enquiries much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry, I don't think there are any burials transcribed for Shermanbury between 1701 and 1801.  That's not to say it wouldn't be possible to look them up at Chichester or Shermanbury itself...  I had a look in surrounding parishes too but no luck.

There is a Sarah Henty, buried 3 Oct 1808 a widow of Shermanbury, but I guess she's too late for you.  :'(

Thankyou both for your help. The Sarah Henty dying in 1808 is one of my lot I think but a different Sarah from those I was seeking! I'll try and get to the area some day and see what research I can do there. Thanks again for trying. :)
