Hello Fay

Ann Selmes was born at Brede 1717, parents Walter Selmes and Sarah Pain.
The child of Thomas Lancaster and Ann Selmes that you are missing is the eldest child - Mary Lancaster born 1739 at Westfield. She married Nicholas Russell at Herstmonceux, Sussex in 1769.

Charles Lancaster married Mary Patience at Peasmarsh in 1743. I have a baptism for Mary Patience at Peasmarsh in 1723 so she would have been about age 20 at marriage, not 12. Where does 12 come from?
Also I have John Lancaster's year of death as 1801 not 1802.He was buried at Peasmarsh on 17 May 1801. There is no burial for a John Lancaster at Peasmarsh in 1802.
Do you connect through the line of Ann Selmes and Thomas Lancaster?

Best wishes

I am researching the Selmes families (from anywhere, anytime)and recently have been looking at the family of Thomas Lancaster and his wife Ann Selmes who married at Westfield in early 1739. They had a family of 6 children and lived at Peasmarsh.
Thomas had a brother Charles Lancaster who married Mary Patience in 1743 and they too lived at Peasmarsh raising a large family.
If you have connections to these families I may be able to help with info.

Best wishes
Caroline
