I am trying to compile a family tree for my children and believe that many of my relatives came from around , Bosham, Westbourne , Southbourne , Portsmouth and Emsworth. my great grand mother was Bessie Cooper Nee Denham, GGrandfather was David Cooper and my biological Grandfather was Richard Frogbrooke. my grandmother later married John Burch. I also remeber an Aunt Nell, Aunt May surname may have been Carpenter and Uncle Ron Randall. any help would be appreciated. thank you.

I'm looking for information about the HICKMAN family who lived in Funtington and/or West Ashling in the early 1800's. They appear on the 1841 census but I cannot progress further back from there. Any information welcome.
Thanks

My husband and I are visiting Birdham in April 2007. We have addresses from 1830's which we will need to find where these addresses are in 2007. The lists of addresses are as follows:49 Mill House Rd~ Birdham 49 Almodington. Sidlesham 92 Woddhorn Rd~ Birdham Church Cottage Birdham 44 Church Cottage~ Birdham 42 Wandiemens Cottage~ Birdham 90 Guys Farm in West Wittering**88 Village of Mill in Sidlesman**Alley Cottage near mill in SidleshamWe don't know whether these cottages are still in existence. We would be most grateful for any information re family names Barnes George Barnes (born 2 January 1831~ Birdham) left Birdham in 1850's~ he was a sailor and he jumped ship in Australia in 1862 from the 'Adriadne'. He lived out his life in Queensland~ Australia he married and produced 8 children. He was my husband's great grandfather. We have the old survey maps of the local area but there are a number of Mill House~ Mill Farm etc which are quite confusing. **If there is anyone who knows anything about the Barnes family father William born 30 July 1797 in Sidlesham and his wife Phebe Barber born 6 July 1807 South Hayling **and married 4 October 1825 at St James Church~ Birdham. William and Phebe were George Barnes' parents. We have not been able to progress further back than William Barnes born 1797 in Sidlesham. We cannot find who were the parents of William. We are thinking maybe he was illegitmate~ we don't really know.**We would be grateful for any information ie graves or relatives. We have exhausted the information which could be gained from Sussex records Office.Thanking you Jim and Lorraine Barnes Australia
