Feist/Fiest/Feast family believed from Sussex

[brabazon]

I am trying to trace details of my great grandmother Margaret Feist who I believe was born Horsham Sussex c 1863.  Id like to be able to get a copy of her birth certificate. Can anyone assist please. In the 1901 Census, she was living with Henry Buckett (41) & she was recorded as Margaret Buckett (38) children were Violet,7 (my grandmother - Marion Violet) her birthplace Streatham, as are the other children apart from Ethel , Ellen (Elizabeth) 4, Ethel (Margaret) 15 born in Surrey, Charles 14, Ernest (Henry) 10, George (Albert)  8. All these names tie in with my mothers information. Another sibling Doris Mary was born in 1901.  Henry's place of birth given as Hants Lansbury Green.  Believed to be Sarisbury Green. In 1881 Census there was a Henry Buckett aged 20 - shown as born in Salisbury Hampshire  lodger at Henry Sargeant  abode in Surrey. The age fits my Henry.  My geography knowledge is very limited for England, having lived in Australia since I was 14.  There is a possibility that Margaret & Henry were married in Fareham in 1885.  There is a John Henry Buckett birth Fareham ref 2b 463. All info above from was kindly researched by my friend Lesley as my expertise is very limited on such matters.
Thank you Angela and " Honeybun"  for your assistance.

Hi again Zoe
I have now found them in 1901 - mistranscribed but I found them via Violet who was down as Buckett wereas her parents were Buckert!   However I cannot see them in 1891.  Perhaps someone else will be luckier.
If that is your only proof of Margaret's age then perhaps she may in fact be the one who shows up in 1861 and 71 but is born c1857.  If she was older than Henry she may have fibbed about her age.  Possible?
Assuming that Ethel is the eldest child then you need to start to look for a marriage from about 1886 back.    Getting that certificate would confirm Margaret's age and her father's name.

Andrea,
I think that they are in Streatham in 1891.

Buckett, Henry abt 1860 b , Hampshire, England
Buckett, Margarett abt 1862 b, Sussex, England
Buckett, Ethel M abt 1886 b, Surrey, England   
Buckett, Charlie abt 1887 b, London, England 
Buckett, Francis H abt 1889 b, London, England
Buckett, Ernest H abt 1890 b, London, England

I don't have access to the full census information but when I put in place of birth for Margaret it didn't come up as being Horsham

Regards

Thanks - how did I miss them?
RG12 454 F109 p7
Lynwood High Rd Totting, Streatham
Henry Buckett 31 Gardener Domestic b Salisbury Green Hants
Margarett 29 b Lower Beeding Sussex
Ethel M 5 b Wimbledon Surrey
Charlie 4 b Battersea London
Frances H b Wandsworth Surrey
Ernest H 8 months b Tooting

Lower Beeding is south east of Horsham.  Not that far away.   It does have a church so those may well be the parish records you need to look at Zoe.

This Feast thread is becoming very interesting to me.   One of my difficult lines is with a Mary Feast b. ~1825 in Beeding (not too sure if upper or lower).

Mary m. John Cooper possibly in late 1844 (certificate identified at last and ordered),   they then lived in Storrington.  These are direct ancestors at level GG Gf/m.

Do note that there is a huge bank of Parishes around Storrington/Beeding etc which are not included in the IGI so difficult trace on line.   I do have a list somewhere,  down loaded the list from the Chichester record office.

Thank you Andrea, Mark, Deborah, and RobHam for the assistance, its astonishing to me that you are all so skillful in this searching lark. I am so excited about getting so far with this as a year ago I didn't think I'd find out any names.  I think I need to ask my cousin to do some parish searching for me, as there is not much chance that I will get over to the UK in the next 12 months.  Do I just use the email a friend button to give her a link?

I now have the Certificate,  definitely the correct one.
My Mary Feist b. ~1825 Beeding - Father is recorded as George Feist.

I checked through the 1841 census quickly in Upper and Lower beeding but no sign of any George or Mary Feist's so most probably elsewhere.

 I just happen to have the transcripts of the Beeding Parish.
I found a BP:
   Mary I FEAST dau George and Sarah 6 June 1824
FHL film 1364151.
There is quit a bit of Feast info on this record. It also looks if it has George's parents and siblings and.. another generation back. If you're interested I will post for you.
 ooo and Mary was the only child I found so I would say they moved elsewhere.
