Thomas Breeding
« on: Wednesday 07 August 24 23:49 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I have an ancestor called Thomas Breeding(Breeden) who married Elizabeth Short in Cuckfield 1770. He died in 1828 in Balcombe born around 1750. I thought that he might be Thomas Breeding born 1750 Cuckfield son of Nicholas and Sarah, but looking at the records there is no baptism. I think i found information elsewhere in the past and did not look further into it. Can someone help to find the baptism and right parents of Thomas?

I note the marriage in 1770 but quite a gap before the children were baptised, were there any others?

As Thomas/Elizabeth don't seem to name children Nicholas/Sarah I would be sceptical those were his Parents.

I see they have children James/Henry/William/Joseph/Mary from 1780.
Must be others born elsewhere?



Mary BASHFORD
Nicholaus BREDEN married 17 Apr 1768 Cuckfield.

The had a Thomas but bapt 11 Sep 1768 so too young to marry 1770.

Elizabeth SHORT was bapt 28 Jul 1751 Holy Trinity, Cuckfield to WILLIAM/SARAH

Thank you all again for your time and research. Yes I have Elizabeth Short b. 1751 Cuckfield too but her husband is still a mystery and the name Breeduing/Breeden is not very common.

The poor family:( I think it was not an easy time for them while growing up. I did not know that these records exist and will look more into it because i have a lot of ancestors from Sussex. You never know the circumstances back then, maybe Thomas was adopted or lived with a family called Breeden and took their last name or was born with a different surname or born illegitimate and later took his biological or stepdads name. The name of his child "Craven" could also be surname that runs in his or his wifes family ???
