Hi to Jane & John I do not know if I can help you with your research but I have done a little research with a Packham family. My main research is with the Baldock, Lusted, Chantler and Apps families from Wadhurst and Mayfield. My 3xgreatgrandfather was Joseph Baldock. His sister Elizabeth married Zachariah King at Mayfield. Their youngest son is Frederick. Frederick KING born about 1829 married Esther Katherine Willsher PACKHAM. Esther was born at Mayfield 1834 and christened at St. Dunstans 9 March 1834. Her parents are William Packham and Sarah Willsher. Frederick King and Esther Packham married at St. Dunstan's Parish Church 20 December 1855. Their children Frank born about 1856 Clara Kate b. 27 Dec. 1858 Isabella Flora b.
