Yes, Aldrington Cemetry must now be Hove Cemetry. I remember it as a walk for my Mother - she said it was quiet and peaceful. We were several of a family so I could well understand as I got older!

Aldrington Cemetery is in Hove and used to be in the care of Hove Borough Council, so I assume that it was transferred to Brighton & Hove City Council when they merged. The cemetery opened in 1882 and the Burial registers up to 1926 were deposited at ESRO when I last used them back in 1999. It appears to have been the chosen burial ground for people from the Steyning Union Workhouse. Best wishes Marion Woolgar Bognor Regis, West Sussex

Hi All, Thank you for your help with this, especially Andrea, Julie, Melissa, Stephen, Margaret, Pauline and Bridget. It would appear that Eliza Alice Taylor 1868 Jun qtr Shoreditch is the most likely candidate to be her and have now requested the certificate. Also James Taylor and Martha Sparrow 1866 Sep qtr Pancras to be her parents, certificate also requested. In 1871 census at 7 Arundel Street, Bethnall Green; James and Martha are resident with Eliza and Amelia plus neice and nephew Caroline and James Sparrow aged 9 and 19 respectively. In 1881 census at 8 Market Street, Brighton; James and Martha are resident with Eliza, Amelia, Martha, George and Frederick. In 1887 (june qtr Brighton) Martha Ann Taylor aged 39 died. In 1891 census at 8 Cheltenham Place, Brighton; James is resident with his new wife and George, Frederick and Alfred plus nephew William Taylor aged 21 and neice Ellen Marsh aged 14. I have tried to trace James Taylor and Martha Sparrow's births on FreeBMD, but to no avail. Neither can I find them on 1861 census where they would both be aged 14. I may have come to a standstill again, but at least I have at last made some progress. Thank you again for your help. Alan Tubb (membership 1917)

I think Anne, the original enquirer re occupation of 'Deputy Marshall' , should consider that the spelling in the PR is incorrect - maybe it should be with only one letter 'L' . This would mean that the father was a 'Deputy Marshal' and the dictionary definition of a 'Marshal' is the following:- 1. an officer of high or the highest military rank - Air Marshall, Field Marshal 2. an official with responsibility for arranging certain public events or cermonies 3. an official accompanying a judge on circuit, with secretarial duties 4. an official at a race I suspect he definition No. 2 applies in this case. Regards Howard Marshall (Lincoln)

I can't find a baptism for Jane. What are the details and dates on the marriage certificate? There is a baptism on the IGI (extracted entry) for a Mary Prowdly, at Cowden on 4th September 1814. Parents are James Prowdly and Susan. Also for a Sarah Proudly, at Cowden on 30th June 1816. Parents are James Proudly and Susannah. Both are in Batch No.C130993. The Miles family were extensive in the area. There was an article in the December 2004 issue of the Family Historian about one branch of them.

A small group of SFHG members are involved in a one name study for the name BLAKER, concentrating at present on occurrences in Sussex, where the name is particularly common. Our present focus, within this, is on any BLAKER alive before 1625. Now, we have been busy garnering references to the BLAKER name online and off. This is fine where BLAKER is the most significant name and has therefore been indexed. What we need now are other references. So, please, if you have any BLAKER mentioned as a witness, legatee etc in a will or a marriage etc, or in any other sense, for example Manor Rolls, lawsuit etc, before 1625 in Sussex (although others are of interest), please can you forward them to one of the following: Rod Blaker rod.blaker@gmail.com Joseanne Campbell josiecamp1@yahoo.co.uk or Chris Rodgers blaker_gen@yahoo.co.uk Chris #12513 The name can also be found as BLAYKER, BLAKKER, BLACOR, BLAKYERE, BLACKER, BLACKERE, BLECHERE, BLEECHERE etc in documents of these earlier times. Most significant sources consulted so far: Online: Lay Subsidies - earliest three only IGI A2A Patent Rolls PCC Wills FFHS records Offline: Sussex Marriage Index of SFHG Comber's Sussex Genealogies Renshaw's Blaker's of Portslade, both editions Visitations of Sussex Burial Records of SFHG Other records held by SFHG Cross-posted to Sussex-Plus and Blaker List, and other non-Ancestry lists --------------------------------- Yahoo! for Good helps you make a difference

Hello I have obtained copies of the baptismal records of a family living in Kennington Surrey and baptised at St Mary Lambeth. The father's occupation on all seven children's baptisms is recorded as "Deputy Marshall". This is how spelt in all entries. I have looked in two early occupation books that I own but neither mentions this particular occupation. Would appreciate information on what this position actually did. With thanks Anne Wiltshire smuggler@iinet.net.au Runaway Bay QLD Australia

In deaths Susannah Horsham Mar 1839 VII 263 In Marriages Southampton Jun 1849 VII 287 In the Marriage Index your reference to James and Susannah in 1810.

Hi Alan, One way is to look for the family in the 1871 census. I found a likely family: RG 10, Piece 498, Folio 29b, Page 10. Bethnal Green, Middlesex. Address 7 Arundel Street. James TAYLOR, Head, Mar, 24, Carman, St Pancras, Middlesex. Martha A, Wife, Mar, 24, St Pancras, Middlesex. Eliza A, Daur, 2, Hoxton, Middlesex. Amelia, Daur, 1, Hoxton, Middlesex. Caroline SPARROW, Niece, 9, St Pancras, Middlesex. James SPARROW, Nephew, Unm, 19, St Pancras, Middlesex. They are also sharing the house with the Rogers & Mahoney families. In 1881 this family appear to be in Brighton on RG 11, Piece 1091, Folio 20, Page 35. On this Eliza is 14 and Amelia 6, but censuses are notorious for errors on ages. The names all appear to fit, but you'll need to do more digging. Regards, Stephen Steere Orpington, Kent. Researching TAYLOR around Southwater & Horsham.

Hello Listers I am still seeking information about Anne REYNOLDS who married Henry HUDSON in Arundel on 27 June 1836. From census records she was born around 1810. The witnesses to her marriage were Elizabeth and Robert HARWOOD. Elizabeth Harwood's maiden name was also REYNOLDS (she was the daughter of John REYNOLDS and Elizabeth STRUDWICK). It seems likely that Anne Reynolds and Elizabeth Harwood nee Reynolds were related, but I cannot find a link. I have not been able to determine who Anne's parents were. Help and advice on this would be most welcome. Mike Reynolds member 9239

I am very new to the society and reallystruggling to find details of the PROUDLEY family.I do hope members can help. My Gt Gt Gt Grandmother was Jane PROUDLEY, on ordering a marriage certificate I found that although from Cowden in Kent, her parents were more than likely to be James PROUDLEY and Susannah MILES where were married in Hartfield, Sussex around 1810. I can find no mention of the family in any census report after that. I did find a baptism for James in 1811 in Cowden but none for Jane. If any members can help with any information as to what happened to PROUDLEYS/PROUDLYS or Susannahs family (the MILES) Kind regards Member 12618

An online dictionary (Old Occupations) gives a definition for 'Marshall' as 'horse doctor' or 'shoe smith'. Not so romantic as thinking they were the local sherriffs! Do any of the family continue the trade in later censuses? I also have family from that area who were iron founders, so may have had a hand in the horseshoes.
