Preview:On 19th February 2013 I had a breakthrough in our 30 year search for Susan NYE, except we still have problems. Looking yet again at the children of Susannah NYE, who married on 7th June, 1830 at St. Nicholas Church, Brighton, Charles WOOD, Hairdresser, witnesses Henry WOOD and Mary BIGNELL, I decided to check on their whereabouts through FreeCEN as that is almost complete for 1861.
James WOOD aged 13 born Brighton (probably born 1847 Brighton, Volume 7 Page 280) in the 1861 Census was in Henfield High Street as Nephew to George LUDBITTER aged 59 Wheelwright and Charlotte LUDBITTER 52 born Henfield. Henfield was of great interest as "my" Susannah NYE was born there in 1811: "Susannah dau. of Benjamin & Sarah NYE privately baptised on the day of her birth Janry 12th and received into the Church Febry 10th"
