Caryll Chapel

A Memory of Warnham Court School.

My husband and I came to Sussex in April 2005 tracing my Caryll/Caryl ancestry. We took a bus from Brighton to Warnham, when we arrived in Warnham, I asked the driver where St. Margaret's Church was. He motioned up around the corner. When we got off the bus, the church bells were ringing. We walked up to the church and a vicar let us in. When he learned of my Caryl ancestry, he gave us a special tour of the chapel and the church. It was a very special visit and I felt like I had come back to my roots. He mentioned that he had something for me at his house, and returned with a book he had bought at a flea market with a lot of my Caryll history. The bell ringer was a visitor who had just happened to stop by, but I knew that it was really my Caryll ancestors welcoming me back... and wondering why it took me so long to come back! I know John Caryll had a house in Warnham in the early 1500's, is there any part of it still standing? Thanks, Pat Caryl Jorgensen, Washington USA
