Long Walks A memory of Catsfield, East Sussex When I was a little girl in the early 60's I often used to take long walks along here, and I used to visit the farm to watch Peter Jenner milking the cows. I also had a crush on Peter but I was only 6 and he was 14. I wonder what happened to Peter. My late mother went to the school in the picture and was born in Hermon Cottage in Catsfield and that is where my auntie Violet lived for most of her life until it was turned into a doctor's surgery then my auntie moved across the road into one of the cottages. I have wonderful memories of holidays here as I lived in London. Catsfield will always be close to my heart. My mother's maiden name was Saxby and there have always been Saxbys in Catsfield for centuries. When my mother died my sister and I had her ashes interred in the old church yard in Catsfield up on the hill together with my father's.

Romany Folk A memory of Hollington, East Sussex My ancestors were Romany gypsies around Hollington and the surrounding areas. True Romany folk living off the land, who were well respected in the area. If anyone thinks they have gypsy blood from this area I'd love to hear from you. rebekahm28@aol.com Posted: 06/11/2008 13:46 by Rebekah Markham |

Girl Born In Village In May 1925 - Martin Family A memory of Staplecross, East Sussex My late mother-in-law was apparently born in the village in 1925, but was unable to be kept, so was raised by the Martin family in Hastings. Did they also have any connections with Staplecross? Mum's family folklore believes the name Post and possibly Butchers Shop may hold a connection. Mum was raised as Audrey Ruth Martin but the family understand that it is possible at least one of these names was NOT given. Can anyone throw any light on a family mystery? Thank you.
