Preview:In the 1930s William ALBERY (1864-1950) of Horsham made copious extracts from the Sussex Assize records 1560-1800 in the then Public Record Office, London. He made use of these extracts in compiling his Millennium of Facts of The History of Horsham and Sussex 947-1947 which he finished in 1939 but owing to the Second World War this was not published until early in 1947. He used the war years to bring his original work up to date, finding a Saxon charter of 947 that enabled him to write a selective history of Horsham covering a thousand years. ALBERY's 270 pages of notes were typewritten in two copies: one remains in Horsham Museum and the other was given in January 1946 to Brighton Reference Library and has now passed to East Sussex Record Office. It is this latter copy which has been used to make this present work.
