    3. In 1851 John FAY was a Farm Labourer living in Chidham with wife Elizabeth b c1789 Chelsea, Middlesex. In 1841 John is shown as an Ag Labourer living in Chidham with wife Jane b c1791 Chidham. With them is Frank FAY b c1829 Chidham. Jane FAY died in 1849 in Westbourne RD and John married again to Elizabeth NEWELL in March 1851. John FAY christened 7 November 1784 Bosham. Henry FAY christened 25 December 1791 Bosham. Parents: Henry FAY and Mary. There is a marriage for Henry FAY Snr to Mary TURNER c1779 of Rye, Sussex. I have been unable to find Frank FAY on the 1851 or 1861 Census and there is a death entry for Frank FAY in the Dec Qtr 1848 Westbourne 7 407. Sources are 1841 and 1851 Census; IGI and GRO.

    1. [SXP] JACKMAN + Plumstead/Woolwich
    2. pamhillier
    3. Hello List, My cousin and I have a brickwall. We are searching for an Elizabeth JACKMAN born circa 1874 Apparently she was born Plumstead, Woolwich area. Her father according to marriage certificate is James William JACKMAN, deceased at time of marriage to Samuel KEECH in 1896. He could possibly have gone by the name of William. At some point they lived at Vicarage road Plumstead. If anyone is researching JACKMANS we would love to hear from you. Cheers Pam from Adelaide Australia We do not remember Days, We remember Moments.

I have checked Ancestry for the 1851 census and the only John Fay shown is aged about 65, a farm labourer living and born in Chidham and his 62 year old wife Elizabeth born Chelsea, Mddx. This was born Sussex but resident in all counties. Chidham is a parish within the hundred of Bosham and about a mile from Bosham across the Bosham Channel. Interestingly the 1841 census has 55 year old John Fay in Chidham with 50 year old Jane Fay - a different wife?? - and 12 year old Frank Fay. Seems quite likely that this is the family you are looking for. All the best.

(John Brown Esquire OR alternatively Mr John Brown). It was in common usage on mail in NZ about 50 years ago but seems to have died out as I have not seen it very often in recent years.

After about 1752 they were occasionally held at Bro. Dodd's, Hollylands, Horley; at the *TANYARD*, and at Thomas Streater's, at Enhams, also once or twice at "Colinden." After 1766 Richard Holiday's House, Cogman's Burstow, alternately with Mee (Meath) Green was used till in 1771 some "Scandlus Reports" connected with the former led to the meeting of Dec. 4, 1771, being transferred to Shepherds, Outwood. After more than a century the Church was provided with a Meeting House, erected in Horley Row... It was occupied from 1760 to 1791... After 1791 it became a dwelling house... An annex with an oven was erected and for over hundred years a baker's business was carried on and the place known as "The Old Bakehouse." In 1920 it was sold and renovated and is now a private residence. Of those at Horley the *TANYARD* was long since closed and the house rebuilt. Collinden, a farmhouse near Horse Hill, and Enham, perhaps "Inholm" near Harrowsley, have remains. Hollylands seems uncertain; its reputed site is near Horley lands on the Balcomb Road, where is yet an ancient house.” The phrases, "The house rebuilt," and "much altered" would seem to indicate a match on TQ 24SE 5/21 but it would be great to have something more definitive.

    1. Re: [SXP] Mr or not!
    2. Ray & Jill Langridge
    3. Hi Pam, The terms Mr. and Esq. originally held meanings in the social order. These are the definitions from a genealogical dictionary that I have: Mr. An abbreviation for Master,and originally so pronounced. Harrison in his Description of Britain(1577) refers to 'Master,which is the title that men give to esquires and gentlemen'. In the seventeenth century it was a courtesy title for any man of respectable status. I presume that this would not have included manual workers or trades people. Esq. In the Middle Ages a squire(escutifer) carried the shield and other armour for the lord or knight that he served,but this duty passed later to pages. Squires in this sense were of gentle family. By the sixteenth century,Esquire was a title acquired by holding an office under the Crown, and so was not necessarily superior to 'gentleman', but in practice such office holding carried distinction. Esquires proper held Crown commissions as Justices of the Peace,army officers,Royal navy commanders (but not junior naval officers),the common hangman, etc. The modern courtesy use of the style became common in the nineteenth century. The squire in a country parish was the colloquial designation for the lord of the manor or chief landowner. In modern times these fine distinctions have been lost by the general use of the terms. Regards, Ray.
