Preview:John DAY, son of James and Mary, was christened 18 October 1807 at Saint Mary's, Portsea, Hampshire and married Sarah FRAMPTON on 17 February 1828 in Alverstoke; witnessed by Hannah FRAMPTON. Their child Sarah Jane was christened in Portsea seven months later. My great-great-grandfather John Charles (1832) was born in Brighton. He was christened at St Nicholas Church, as were his sisters Mary Ann (1834) and Charlotte Henry (1836). Their mother appears to have died when the children were very young. No record of her burial has been found. There could be a clue from the Coroners inquest held on Sunday 15 January 1837 at the Norfolk Arms: "Sarah DAY unfortunately met her death by falling down a well at 4 Surrey Street. Verdict accidental death".
