Did You Know?
- There is a gap in the baptisms of the children of Benjamin Mepham and Elizabeth Corke in Heathfield between 1791 and 1797. According to PAR372/35/2, as at 10 January 1792 Benjamin had run away, leaving his wife and family chargeable to the parish. Benjamin was presumably also absent in 1795, when it was ordered that Elizabeth's 8-year-old son Benjamin Mepham Cork be sent back to Mayfield, his parish of birth, having become chargeable to the parish of Heathfield.
- There are a couple of baptisms in mid-eighteenth-century Sussex that could be Benjamin Mepham's, but since both the record of his marriage and the bastardy bond he signed a few days before state that he was 'of Folkestone' in Kent I don't think there are sufficient grounds to make the link.
