Research Notes
Information was originally drawn from Look-up service (from PRs/BTs) (from parish registers or bishop's transcripts) and Parish register (on microfilm/fiche), but the archive reference wasn't noted.
Marriage was by banns. Described as bachelor and spinster of this parish. She signed, he made his mark. Witnesses were Benjamin Copping and John Taylor, who both made their marks..
Children's details have all been supplied by the look-up service, from the Friston parish register.
James and the first Samuel were baptised privately, and the first Robert privately, and then publicly a few months later - sadly, he then died of a fit a month after that. William died two days after his baptism. The second Robert had a private baptism, and was 'received into the church' the following year. Father is recorded as a labourer in 1818.
The first three children may have been a year or two old before they were baptised, because William is stated to be 18 months old when he died - or perhaps he was born between James and John. According to the Hillen family website, Mary died in 1875.
