Having got back to 1841 census and found MARY & STEPHEN WILLETT in Croydon (against her name is said TRAVELLER) I am now wondering where I go from here! Their son BENJAMIN 'travelled' to East Sussex (his wife was EMMA RAMPLING). They and their children seemed to work on farms in the area of Plumpton.........

MARY & STEPHEN (1841 census in Croydon - don't know where they go after this)

  Children ..... Caroline (who eventually married Mark Gorringe)

  Eliza or maybe Mary?

  BENJAMIN*

BENJAMIN* (Direct Ancestor) married EMMA RAMPLING (1861 in Croydon, 1871 Streat,1881 Plumpton,1891 East Chiltington, 1901 Benjamin in Chailey Workhouse )

  Children ..... William (who married Adelaide Gorringe)

  Frederick (who married Sarah Cadman)

  Eliza

  BENJAMIN FREDERICK ( direct ancestor)

  George

  Emma Jane

BENJAMIN FREDERICK who married FANNY JANE FORTUNE (Married Newhaven. 1891 Plumpton, Ashurst Cottage, Riddens Farm. Fanny died there 1900. Benjamin disappears until 1906 when he marries JANE AGATE in Uckfield. They then lived in Hassocks)

  Children ............. Emily M (who married William Goodridge)

  FREDERICK GEORGE b. 1893 at Jenners Farm (who married MINNIE STILES) my Grandparents,So really we are interested in the two Benjamins, MARY & STEPHEN & BENJAMIN & EMMA .Thank You.
