It cannot be guaranteed that this is the complete set and future revised editions will be needed to incorporate new discoveries, including non-Ashdown wills that contain valuable Ashdown information. These wills have enabled many of the Ashdown family trees in Sussex to be verified and further developed. Each will in this book includes a family tree which places the will in context and highlights how other wills are connected. The trees are based on many years of research using primarily the Sussex Family History Group baptisms, marriages and burials indexes and are also based on the information gleaned from the Ashdown wills. I hope that the wills and family trees published

  • Adherents from the Rape of Hastings and Pevensey Lowey of the Jack Cade Rebellion of 1450 Who Were Pardonned
    Adherents from the Rape of Hastings and Pevensey Lowey of the Jack Cade Rebellion of 1450 who were pardonned In June 1450 Jack Cade became leader of an originally Kentish rebellion of small property holders penalised by high taxes. The rebellion spread to involve men from neighbouring counties, especially Sussex. Cade assumed the name John Mortimer and demanded the removal of several of the King’s chief ministers and the recall of Richard, Duke of York. The rebel forces defeated a royal army at Sevenoaks, Kent, on 18 June, and went on to London. There the rebels executed the lord treasurer, James Fiennes. A degree of lawlessness followed and Londoners drove the rebels from the city on 5-6 July. The government persuaded many of the rebels to disperse by offering pardons, but Cade continued his activities. He was chased down, wounded and captured at Cade Street near Heathfield, Sussex, on 12 July, and died of his wounds whilst being transported to London. The list below is of those from the Rape of Hastings and Lowey of Pevensey who had taken part in or supported the rebellion and were granted pardons. It gives a good indication of how widespread this rebellion was. It attracted adherents from across the social spectrum and involved whole communities. Undoubtedly there was no way the normal severe capital retributions could be used to punish all those involved or whole communities would have been decimated and made unproductive, but some ringleaders were singled out and executed.

  • World War One: the Deaths of Those Associated with Battle and District
    WORLD WAR ONE: THE DEATHS OF THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH BATTLE AND DISTRICT This article cannot be more than a simple series of statements, and sometimes speculations, about each member of the forces listed. The Society would very much appreciate having more information, including photographs, particularly from their families. CONTENTS Page Introduction 1 The western front 3 1914 3 1915 8 1916 15 1917 38 1918 59 Post-Armistice 82 Gallipoli and Greece 83 Mesopotamia and the Middle East 85 India 88 Africa 88 At sea 89 In the air 94 Home or unknown theatre 95 Unknown as to identity and place 100 Sources and methodology 101 Appendix: numbers by month and theatre 102 Index 104 INTRODUCTION This article gives as much relevant information as can be found on each man (and one woman) who died in service in the First World War. To go into detail on the various campaigns that led to the deaths would extend an article into a history of the war, and this is avoided here. Here we attempt to identify and to locate the 407 people who died, who are known to have been associated in some way with Battle and its nearby parishes: Ashburnham, Bodiam, Brede, Brightling, Catsfield, Dallington, Ewhurst, Mountfield, Netherfield, Ninfield, Penhurst, Robertsbridge and Salehurst, Sedlescombe, Westfield and Whatlington. Those who died are listed by date of death within each theatre of war. Due note should be taken of the dates of death particularly in the last ten days of March 1918, where several are notional. Home dates may be based on registration data, which means that the year in 1 question may be earlier than that given.

  • East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2008 to March 2009 Introduction
    eastsussex.gov.uk East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2008 to March 2009 Introduction The year was again dominated by efforts towards achieving The Keep, the new Historical Resource Centre, but the core work of the Record Office continued more busily than ever and there was much of which to be proud. In July 2008 we took in our ten-thousandth accession, something of a milestone in the office’s own history of almost 60 years. An application to the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for £4.9million towards the costs of The Keep was submitted by the Record Office on behalf of the capital partners, East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and the University of Sussex, in September. This represented around 20% of the anticipated costs of the building, since the partners remain committed to find the remainder. In December we learned our fate: that we had been unsuccessful. Feedback from the HLF indicated that ours had been an exemplary application, and one which they would have liked to have supported but, in a year when the effect of diverting HLF money to the Olympics was being felt, it was thought necessary to give precedence to some very high-profile projects. We were, of course, disappointed, but determined not to be deterred, and the partners agreed to pursue ways forward within the existing funding. Because it would further hold up the project, adding to inflation costs, but give no guarantee of success, we decided not to re-apply to the HLF, and by the end of the financial year were beginning to look at options for a less expensive building.
