OK,

FMP (find my past) to the rescue.

Parish Records Collection - burial

Forenames: John
Surname: PITCHER
Day: 28 Sep 1834 (slightly different date)
Age: 30y
Place: Seaford
Description: St.Leonard
County: Sussex,England
Record source: Sussex Burials

So, proof positive we have a John Pitcher death, whether he's ours is the next Q. The actual burial register might give an address to cross match with the baptism of the last child George.

Glenn, if i were you i'd still contact the records office there in Sussex and get them the check George's baptism details and John's death.

Elizabeth was born in 1846, which is why I asked about a birth certificate.
The extracted record was posted a minute before my question, whilst I was still typing.

Wow.
What can I say.
So much input. In such a short time.
Where do you all get this information?
I'll take a while to digest all this.

Thanks so much.
Glenn
