There are three coincidences in your message. Firstly, my name is also Ros. Secondly, my grandfather Frederick Augustus Stevens was a close friend of Arthur Ede of Midhurst. And thirdly, my grandmother's sister Winifred Ellen Sturt married Alexander Meckiff Moon in 1913 in Tonbridge. I dont know if there is any connection with yours. For anyone interested there are a lot of Sussex people included in the family trees on my website at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~stevemm under Stevens and Sturt Ancestors and Arthur Ede and others are mentioned in my father's Sussex memories.

Hi List, I was wondering if anyone knows if the New Elm Cottages at West Firle, Sussex still exist or if so if there is anyone in the area that could take a photo for the family in Australia please. Our Stephens/Stevens (Thomas,Mary and Lancelot) were living there in the 1841 and 1851 census. Many thanks, Robin W, Launceston, Tasmania, Australia

Hi, a big thank you to all of you who send help/advice. Regards, Heather Brooks

Hello from Australia. William Streeter was born at Mountfield,Sussex, on 21 June 1842, was a miner and migrated to Australia with his brother Henry on the "Lady Milton" which arrived in Sydney on 28 June 1862. William died in Brisbane on 22 Jan 1931, aged 88. William's parents were Edward and Rebecca and the 1851 census shows the family living in North Trade Workhouse, Battle, East Sussex. Rebecca was dead by this time. The 1861 census showed that Edward had married Eliza (?surname) and William was living with his sister in Folkestone. William married Margaret SHERRINGTON (1856 to 1905) at Gladstone on 23 Dec 1880. Is anyone researching this STREETER line? Cheers, Bob in Melbourne

> John, Great you brought up the topic of the Plague of 1665. It has aways been interesting. concerning the fire of London; It may not have been the reason for the lessening of the Plague, but people believed it. That, I think, from what I've read, is why the people of Rolvenden burned their village down. You Hooe connection slipped my mind. On a different tack concerning Hooe. I know of the Red Lion and the connection to smuggling. If you ever come across anything about this subject from late 1700's to 1820 or so, I'd like to hear. I have seen mention, but no more, on a couple websites. I have suspicions that my 5x great-grandfather was involved. I know many were in one way or another, but he may have been more so. Thanks.

Hi John, This site http://www3.sympatico.ca/gander/Church.htm says that there were sporadic outbreaks of the Black Death into the 17th cent so 1669 is possible.

Could some kind person find the above person in the 1871 Census please. He was born abt 1840 in Ewhurst. I want to know if he is a Widower or married. If married what was his wife's name please. Also any children he may have. Many thanks. Judy Berntsen New Zealand

Just a small correction - it seems that the disease incubated in only 4-6 days and I think I said weeks! Sorry about that! Regards to you all - and yet another Merry Christmas! John

Hi listers, Hoping someone may have a bit of time before the silly season to help with a request. I have a Chr. Of Harriet Cox 14 Oct 1825 St. Nicholas Church Brighton. The info. Is on the IGI. The film number states it was St. Nicholas Church Brighton Is there anyone in the area that would have a bit of time to lookup and confirm the info. But I am also hoping it would have the fathers occupation which should be a tailor. I am not having any luck in finding Harriet or her parents on the 1841 census though the parents could be dead by then but Harriet is alive 1851 but in Gloucester, gets married there in 1852. There is one match on the 1841 census, father Isaac mother Maria, and daughter Harriet but the fathers occupation is a stone mason. Could Isaac change from being a tailor to a stone mason by 1841 and moved to Gloucester? The marriage certificate for Harriet states her father is a tailor 1852. Her husband is also a tailor as is his father perhaps the person writing the info. Wrote the wrong thing in error. I know not all churches put the fathers occupation and is a long shot but would be really grateful if someone could check this out for me. Regards Sue Greene New Zealand
