Oh dear! I might have been following the wrong line for Thomas Andrew.
IGI: Burial: Name: Thomas Andrew Gender: Male Burial Date: 26 Apr 1748 Burial Place: Cocking, Sussex, England Mother's Name: Margaret Andrew Mother's Birthplace: Indexing Project (Batch) Number: I03189-8 I'm getting confused, as the village of Bepton is just 1.5 miles from Cocking and a Thomas Andrew is buried there on 1st April 1803. This is my Thomas Andrew: On the National Archives website: Closes of arable land, pasture and woodground, and the barn standing upon one of the closes, called Woolverstone at Cocking, having the highway leading from Midhurst to Singleton on W. COWDRAY/1053-1066 1773-1844 These documents are held at West Sussex Record Office Contents: This property was bought by John Challen in 1820. Deeds, 1773-1786 (nos. 1053-1056), also relate to lands, arable, meadow, pasture and woodground called Sagers and Inholmes in Heyshott. No. 1058 is a copy of the will (proved 1804) of Thomas Andrew of Cranleigh (co. Surr.). Nos. 1059, 1062-1064, are copies of documents in a chancery suit, Andrew v. Andrew and others, 1816-1822. My Elizabeth is mentioned in this 1803 will. I have e-mailed Sussex RO for information about the Chancery suit. However, if the Thomas born in 1738 died in 1748, who is my Thomas' parents? Was he baptised at Cocking or Bepton, or somewhere else? |

My Thomas was buried at Cocking, and he can't be the one at Bepton, as he made his will on 8th June 1803.

Panic over, there was another Thomas Andrew with a mother Margaret baptised at Cocking.

I have spent a couple of days in the Record Office at Chichester and I have taken photos of the Chancery case. It's going to take some time to transcribe, though!
It's one of the best record offices to visit with the wills easy to access. I have so many copies of wills from West Sussex now, but I don't know when I will have time to transcribe them. |
