    1. [SFHG] Why marry 8 miles from home. 1674,
    2. ROBIN COATES
    3. A Happy New Year to all. I am curious as to why a couple, both shown as of Rotherfield, would get a Lewes license and then get married in Little Horsted, at least 8 miles from Rotherfield, in 1687.  Why not get married in Rotherfield?.  Might this suggest that one of  the couple had some family connection to Little Horsted?. They must have returned to Rotherfield as they had 9 children baptised there between 1688 and 1708. Any suggestions hugely appreciated, With many thanks Robin (9107)
