Hi, if you go on the West Sussex County Council web page and look for record office and then click "search online catalogues" you will find lots of information on the Palmer family including Xerox copies of papers in the Somerset County record office relating to the Palmer family of Parham and Fairfield which includes a will of Thomas Palmer, 1579, marriage, settlement of Peregryn Palmer, 1659 and accounts of rents collected during the minority of William Palmer 1602-1610. Anybody with family in Sussex should try this site it's surprising what can turn up. Regards Heather Brooks
