Hello - I am looking for any information on a Peregrine Emmitt~ who was buried at St Andrew's Church~ Sausthorpe~ in September 1826. He is thought to be a direct ancestor of my Father Walter Greaves Emmitt who lived in Hull.

• Apparently my 1st post was too long. Here is the rest of the paragraph:
  
  highwaymen. He lived at Partney, in the house now known as the rectory, but died at Sausthorpe, where he owned a considerable property, in 1826, aged 94. He is buried in the churchyard there. Having no children of his own 142 History of Partney. he left his large fortune to the children of Mr. William Banes, who had married his sister, on condition that they took the name and arms of Emmitt.
  
  (BTW, I live in the US, not the UK, but I couldn't register unless I chose an English town. And I did want to share this info with you)

• I found the following information while looking for a different Peregrine Emmitt. It does seem to be the one you're seeking. I don't know if it will help you but thought it was worth a try:

  "Historical notes on the parish of Partney, Lincolnshire"
  
  
  In 1790 Peregrine Emmitt had become still more important, and was assessed at ^336. He was a very famous farmer in his time, bought and sold an enormous quantity of stock and occupied a very large acreage in other parishes besides Partney. In those days all the meat sold in London had to walk there, and it was an important question for buvers which class of animal could travel best to Smithfield. Mr. Emmitt always rode to London to superintend the sale of the stock he had bought in the Partney neighbourhood, and returned home with the money in his pocket. Many stories are still remembered of his narrow escapes from highwaymen. He

Believe Gr Grandfather~ Thomas Scrayfield may have left from here to join the Sheffield Police Force. The change to the Scrayfield name may have been an error~ made at the time of joining the Police Force.
