	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.

Parish Records Collection - burial Forenames: Sarah Surname: PITCHER Day: 11 Dec 1834 Age: 25y Place: Seaford Description: St.Leonard County: Sussex,England Could she have been a sister (or sister in law) to our John?

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 7,446 Send Message	Looks like the son didn't live long :( Parish Records Collection - burial Forenames: John Surname: PITCHER Day: 24 Feb 1833 Age: 2y Place: Seaford Description: St.Leonard County: Sussex,England Record source: Sussex Burials Tracey x

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 7,446 Send Message	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. Tracey x

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 7,446 Send Message	Sorry Susan, but ???? doesn't mean anything!! Simply adding that it was a submitted record and explaining the meaning of this to a newbie (IE the poster) would have been better! Tracey x

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 7,446 Send Message	Hahaha, Dea... at least we are consistant! Dea, Susan did not state it's a submitted record, and while there are 2 entries for this person (same date) we should still get proof, submitted records have a nasty habit of biting you on the bum! T x

	OOOhh - It looks like Susan has found him - she posted above. Sorry Susan, I missed that - well done! Is it submitted or extracted?? Dea x

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 7,446 Send Message	Ssusan, Thats interesting, but you did not state that is a submitted record. These are a good guideline, but not always correct. We need the actual death entry, Glenn??? You still with us? You might need to contact the records office in Sussex and ask them to do a search for you for the death (with the suggested date) and see what they can prove for you. (there might be a charge for this) Tracey x

	John is on Christening records of: Mary Ann, 1827 Robert, 1829 John, 1830 William Thomas, 1832 and George in 1835 (born 28th August, 1834. So he seems to have died somewhere between 1834 and 1841. Dea x EDIT - Snap Tracey Xxx

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 7,446 Send Message	Hmmm lots of children born to the couple... Mary Ann - 1827 Robert - 1829 John - 1830 William Thomas - 1832 George - 1834 Elizabeth - 1846 I think John has died after 1834 and before 1846! Tracey x
