Hi Lorna, It certainly does go back that far - and further - but the only marriage I could find for the right period/area was Thomas Standen and Ann Gasson 26/10/1674 in Wivelsfield (just south east of Cuckfield). It could be the right one - I have several Mary Anns recorded variously as Mary and/or Ann. IGI has two other births for Thomas and Mary in Cuckfield: William ch 2/09/1715 John ch 7/02/1717 both of which might make the above marriage unlikely. You can view the Cuckfield list on IGI by searching on batch number P014341, entering Standen, British Isles, England and Sussex. hth, Anne > From: lornapratt@hotmail.com> To: sussex-plus@rootsweb.com> Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2008 21:27:56 -0200> Subject: [SXP] Sussex marriage - Standen> > > Hi Everyone,> > I am looking for a marriage between Thomas STANDEN and Mary ? in the late 1600's.
