Joe, IHGS have some, for example at http://www.ihgs.ac.uk/shop/index.php/Books/transcripts/Phillimore. Another source is http://www.prtsoc.org.uk/ and you might try http://www.parishregister.co.uk/ and http://www.parishregister.co.uk/search_for_parreg.php. Otherwise I would check the local family history society site, there are tabs for areas near the top of http://www.ffhs.org.uk/members2/contacting.php, or just try google.

Joe, You might start with the GenFair site (Federation of Family History Societies) - http://www.genfair.co.uk/ - and click on Parish Records. I haven't used them but it looks like a good starting point.

Hello Listers I've been checking some family files and something has just 'hit' me. Edward FIELD my 4xgreat-uncle died on 9th January 1786 and his little daughter Elizabeth, aged 4years 6 months, died the next day, 10th January 1786. Both were buried in the cemetery now known, I understand, as St Mary's Whyke Road and then as St Mary's Rumboldswyke. A second child, Edward, was buried a few weeks later, on 21st February 1786. I'd never looked at them both together like I did when re-checking some burial/MI information sent ages ago by a kind Lister called Katherine. If you see this, Katherine, I'd love to make contact again. I can't remember your surname! You said you had MIs for the whole of Chichester. It looks at first glance to be a tragic accident, but Edward left a Will dated 2nd Dec 1785, which seems to indicate that both he and Elizabeth had contracted some dire illness. In his Will he mentions, as is usual "... all such children as I may have living ..." but there was a phrase that was new to me - "... if but one such child then to such only child ...". At the time of making his Will, Edward and his wife Lucy (née PARVIN) had four children, aged 12, 8, 4 and 2. This phrase seems to indicate that he anticipated not only his own death but that of several of his children. As I mentioned above, 2 of them did succumb; were the others ill as well? It seem that the illness was something which only death would relieve, and apparently very infectious. Yet Edward was quite lucid and 'of sound memory' early in December when he made quite a length Will. In his Will he mentions 'my friend Joseph ROBINS ...'. Joseph was married to Edward's sister Mary, J&M being my 3 x ggps. Does anyone know if there was a particular illness prevalent in Chichester in the lates 1780s please? I have no other known Chichester rellies who died in 1786. Joseph ROBINS also died young, but not till 1793 (aged 39). Any others interested in these FIELDs or ROBINSes would be most welcome correspondents. Many thanks Pam Beaudesert, Queensland, Australia

John: I have not seen any replies yet on list to your July 31 plea for help. My reply will not help much. Neither Arthur Sisley nor Lucille Robb appear on any of the 1901 UK censuses shown on Ancestry. The birth registers for England and Wales between 1901 and 1915 list no births for either of them, nor do the marriage registers list a marriage between them. It is as though they never existed - certainly in England and Wales - though Robb is also a common Scots name so she may have been born in Scotland. One thought - if he was a stretcher bearer in WW1 could Arthur have come over with Australian/New Zealand/South African/American/Canadian troops and settled in England after the war? Another possibility - did they in fact marry. Lucille may have been deserted by her husband and divorce was difficult to obtain in those days, especially for catholics. They may just have been common law husband and wife? Sorry not to have been any real help but it may give you some idea of where to look. Have you tried checking electoral registers for the address at which son Anthony was born. Regards. John Cain 10370.

Hi Pam   As you say, illness and early death were everyday events at that time, so I should not place too much significance on the wording of the will; it is pretty standard for a will of that date.   Kathleen --- On Mon, 8/4/08, PMR <cliveden@acenet.net.au> wrote: From: PMR <cliveden@acenet.net.au> Subject: [SFHG] FIELD - a family tragedy in Chichester To: "SSX-PLUS Mailing List" <SUSSEX-PLUS-L@rootsweb.com>, "SFHG Mailing List" <sfhg@rootsweb.com> Date: Monday, August 4, 2008, 4:49 AM Hello Listers I've been checking some family files and something has just 'hit' me.

Thanks so much Mark, I'll take a while to digest all your helpful info. and, everything helps!...certainly will follow up on the Australian War records for William. The 'long shot' was a William Jacques, born in Sussex in 1890, living in Australia, not far from my grandfather William James b 1887. Slim chance that my John Jacques b1812, may be connected to this Sussex family somehow. I have had help before through SFHG list regarding my gggrandfather John Jacques, (c1812) who was sentenced to Transportation to Australia (Tasmania) Sussex Quarter Session Records, in 1835. The records give his profession as Papermaker, Alverstoke (Hants)/ Brighton, but his Tasmanian records state 'gentleman's Servant' sentenced for wearing 'stolen wearing apparel'. Oh dear, Lacy undies? A helpful 'Lister' suggested he had lived in both Alverstoke and Brighton in Sussex. He was on the 'Leviathan' Hulk, Portsmouth Harbour, before being transported to Tasmania. Another helpful member has offered to look at his Records in Lewes, which could get me closer to his birth place. John Jacques' subsequent Tasmanian family were boatmen and Lighthouse keepers, strong attachments to the sea for generations, this continues... John called himself James after his marriage and died in Hobart in 1860. One of his sons was William and another John. Returning to John's profession (s) Papermaker, I read somewhere that there were Paper Mills in them Sussex Hills...any thoughts on that? I have always been led to believe our 'Jacques' were Hugenot's. On we go and thanks! Judith Jacques 12602

I've done a bit of googling on various sites to try and determine a bit more about this postcard. Firstly the date of the postcard: well it would have either been Edward VIIs reign (1902-1910) or George Vs (1910-1936). Maybe Eileen would be kind enough to have a look at the following site which would narrow down the date. www.edinphoto.org.uk/0_PC_0/0_post_card_history_-_stamps_postage_rates_uk_1890s-1952.htm Secondly the address: - there were indeed residential addresses in Tanfield Court, Inner Temple, however the Blitz destroyed a lot of these buildings and few were rebuilt. But the stamp suggests a pre WWII date so the address would have still been there then. I would also suggest that the sender's address was Crouch End, HORNSEY - which is in Middlesex and at that time in the London Borough of Hornsey but now in the London Borough of Harringay. Thirdly although the sender of the postcard hasn't signed it with his his full name I would think that because he used his initials SgG (probably Goodfellow) they were indeed blood brothers. If there was a clearer indication of the date it would be worth trying to locate these people in Post Office Directories of the time. If you have no takers, Eileen, it could well be worth posting this on the London list. best wishes Liz >> > > Date: Wed, 30 Jul 2008 06:51:44 +0100 >> > > From: "Eileen Austin" <e.austin@virgin.net> >> > > Subject: [SFHG] Mr C GOODFELLOW >> > > To: "SFHG SURNAME LIST" <SFHG-L@rootsweb.com> >> > > Message-ID: <004601c8f208$5982bea0$0100a8c0@newpc> >> > > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" >> > > >> > > I have a photograph of three people, an elderly lady seated, >> with a lady >> > > and gent standing behind, taken in a garden. >> > > >> > > It is in the form of a postcard which was addressed to Mr C >> Goodfellow, >> 4 >> > > Tanfield Court, Inner Temple. >> > > >> > > Message reads Dear brother, Thanks for the letter.

Hello List members This is long shot, but would someone be able to find a birth or any details for a WILLIAM JACQUES born July 28 1890. His Australian War Records say that he was born in Sussex England and his father's name was GEORGE. Also in the 'Sussex Strays' Census 1891 is a Martha Jacques aged 17. Camberley HAM p358. The Parish is shown as West Lavington. Any information may help to find the birth place/family of my gggrandfather, John Jacques b c1812. Thank you Judith Jacques 12602

The Inner Temple is one of the four Inns of Court that all Barristers and Judges in the UK have to belong to (I am a member of Inner Temple). The Inns have nothing to do with freemasonary and we do not refer to each other as brothers, although they may have done when Eileen's postcard was written. On the other hand, is it possible that the writer of the postcard was sending it to their brother (sibling) at Inner Temple?

Published by Gale & Polden Limited, Aldershot, 1956. I've shown the full title exactly as it appears on the title page but the dust- jacket has only the short title shown in capitals. I do sympathise with your loss, having myself lost several books in that way and had others spoiled. Nowadays I don't let my books out of the house. MikeS.

I believe it's title is "Traditions And Customs of the Royal Navy". I lent my copy to someone and it was not returned.

Judith, Looking at the Records Search on the Australian National Archives, it lists a William Jacques who was born on July 28 1890 in Portsmouth, England. The next of kin was listed as L Jacques. The date range listed in 1939-1948 (i.e WWII records). These records have not yet been accessed and hence have not yet been scanned. However, you can order them I think. The records that you have looked at are his WWI records. which are scanned in. Looking at them it states that he was born in Rogate, Sussex and his father (George Jacques) lived in Liss, Hants. It appears that William Jacques died 7.8.74, age 84. There is a birth registered for a William Jacques registered in July Q 1890 in Midhurst district (2b, 389) In the 1901 census his family is mistranscribed as Jaynes. Class: /RG13/; Piece: /1092/; Folio: /70/; Page: /24 Crocker Hall, Cooper's Lane, Liss, Hants George Jacques; Head; age 39; Domestic Gardener; b Grantham, Hants Elizabeth Jacques; Wife; age; age 38; b Rogate, Susses Ada Jacques; Daughter; age 14; b Rogate, Sussex William Jacques; Son; age 10; b Rogate, Sussex George was the son of Edmond Jacques (b abt 1824 in Liss) and Jane (b abt 1826 in Rogate) Edmund Jacques was the son of Ann Jacques. He had a sister Caroline Jacques There is a John Jacques who was born in about 1812 and died in 1898 in Chichester District In 1891, he is listed as being born in Furneux, Surrey. He is living in the household of William Jacques (b //abt 1852 in Liss) In 1881, he is listed as being born in Fernhurst, Sussex. He is living in the household of Edmund and Jane Jacques. He is listed as a lodger. In 1871, he is listed as being born in Fernhurst, Sussex and is married to Sarah with a 15 year old son, Henry In 1861, he is listed as being born in Liss. he is married to Sarah In 1851, he is listed as being born in Farnhurst, Surrey. He is married to Sarah. He is mistranscribed as John Jeeves. In 1841, he is listed as being born in Hants. He is married to Sarah There is a John Jacques who was christened in Farnhurst, Sussex (Son of John and Ann) // I would guess that John Jacques (b 1812) is the brother of Edmund Jacques who belongs to the direct line of the William Jacques that inspired this enquiry. Liss and Rogate are less than 4 miles apart. Fernhurst is 8-9 miles from Rogate and Liss. I hope that this was helpful (and correct!)

Fair thought Carol, but I Imagine a Freemason would have concluded with 'fraternally' rather than 'love' ....
