I have been a member of the Sussex Family History Group (SFHG) for several years (5571) but I am not a Committee member or involved with the running of the Group. I imagine that many of you on this mailing group are also members of the SFHG but I also imagine that many of you are not, despite having an interest in tracing your family history in Sussex. Over the last two months I have made extensive use of some of the services offered by SFHG and their members, and would like to publicly thank Brian Cutler (Baptisms Index), Christine Payne (Tombstones and Buriels Index), Judy Excell (Sussex People Index), Michael Hayes (Baptisms Index), Dennis Plank (Settlement Certificates) and Andy Hedgcock (Settlement Certificates) for the amount of time they have taken in providing me with information that has enabled me to progress my research into my PAGE ancestry in central East Sussex. In the cases of Brian Cutler and Christine Payne, the amount of time they have spent has been very considerable. If you have not yet made use of some of these services, then I urge you to consider doing so, especially if you are unable to visit the East Sussex Record Office in Lewes. The amount of information contained in the indexes is immense. Finally, if you are not yet a member of SFHG, then I strongly urge you to consider joining, and thereby making a small return for the services offered by the Group. The SFHG web-site is at <http://www.sfhg.org.uk/> and I consider my annual subscription of only £11 (£13 for overseas members) to be the best value for the money I spend on genealogy. Chris Page
