Thanks, Eliz - I was in Salt Lake City last week and only had a little time to look thru some records at the FHL. I found that Sussex has transcribed their Quarter Session Records (1661-1800) and Poor Law Cases (same dates). They were indexed by hundred. I was able to find, for example, a case in the Lewes Quarter Session, 23 April 1789: Brigden, William, yeoman of Cuckfield refuses to maintain his family of three grandchildren, Frances Berry c11, Sarah Berry c7, and Richard Berry c 5 all poor and impotent and unable to work and are now chargeable to Wivelsfield, he being of sufficient ability to maintain them; now ordered to pay 2s.6d per week from the present session so long as the said children are chargeable. [Richard BERRY, 24+, carpenter of Cuckfield married Sarah Bridgen, 24+, 1776 at Hurstpierpoint]. These are the types of records I am looking for - beyond bmd and the census. I don’t find they are listed at the Haverford R.O., but maybe I am looking in the wrong place. Is it that the records are no longer extant, or is it a matter of digging them out and transcribing them?
