Preview:Like so many of my fellow genealogists the study of my own family history starts with tracing the direct male line i.e. son to father to grandfather, etc. For me this took some 40 years, undertaken as and when time and other commitments allowed.
Over the years I have been able to trace my family through the generations from Lambeth in South London to Sussex. At that stage, in the late 1700s the family resided in Wisborough Green. However, my research took me further south in the county to villages such as Pulborough, Storrington, Washington and Broadwater. The discovery that encouraged further research was the death of Robert PIPER at Pulborough in April 1727. His estate was the subject of an inventory and valuation of £200. Not an insignificant sum of money for the period in question. Robert had lived to the age of 94, which again for the period, was very good given the average life expectancy for the time.
