The Children of Peter Bourner and Sarah Barton

Sarah Barton was born on 11 October 1818 daughter of John Barton and Catherine Keeley (Chapter 2). She was baptised on 8 November 1818 at Heathfield Independent Chapel.   

Sarah Barton married Peter Bourner on 16 May 1840 in Warbleton. Peter was of full age, a farmer from Dallington, son of Peter Bourner, farmer. Sarah Barton was a minor, daughter of John Barton, labourer. Sarah would have been just under 21 when she married. Peter signed the register whereas Sarah was only able to make her mark. (Reg Gen June Qtr 1840 Hailsham 7 437).

Peter Bourner appears to have been Peter Augustus Bourner, who was baptised on 24 July 1816 at Crowhurst, the son of Peter Bourner and Jane Benedicta Holland. Later census returns confirm that Sarah's husband Peter Bourner had been born around that time in Crowhurst. Peter's brother James Bourner and his nephew Peter Bourner (through brother William Bourner) both married into the Wood family (Appendix M).

Peter and Sarah had six children:

• Mary Ann Bourner. Born 1841. Baptised 22 October 1843 in Dallington

• Sally Bourner. Baptised 11 July 1852 at Ashburnham. 
  
• John Bourner, Baptised 10 November 1854 at St John the Evangelist, Bodle Street Green.
  

What follows is the little that is known of their children:

Annie Isted was the sister of Alice Elizabeth Isted, whose daughter married Edith's brother and of Stephen H Isted (see above), so siblings married cousins. Edith Mary Turner of The Bungalow, Brownbread Street, Ashburnham died on 6 May 1986 aged 69 and was buried  at St Michael the Archangel Churchyard, Penshurst.  George died in 2005.

Had they taken over from his sister and her husband (see above). Helena Beale of Red Pale Farm, Bodle Street (wife of John Beale) died on 4 August 1944 at Three Counties Emergency Hospital, Arseley, Bedfordshire. Probate was granted to John Beale. I wonder what happened and what Helena was doing in Bedfordshire? John Beale died in 1973 in Hailsham. 

Finally, Henry and Sally's son David Beale married Dorothy Francis Stubberfield in 1920 in Battle. In 1921 they were living at Corner House, Ashburnham.

Sophia Bourner died in 1947 aged 91 years old.   

In 1911 John and Sophia's daughter Ada Sophie Bourner was a housemaid living at Swan Wood, Shoreham Reach. There was no "obvious" head of household, with 22 year old Rosina Lucy Lutton, a cook. listed as such. Ada's sister Alice was also a servant living at the same address. Ada Sophia Bourner married Martin John Wickens on 23 April 1912 in Heathfield. Martin was a 33 year old farmer, son of Charles Wickens, farmer. Ada was 29 years old. 

In 1921 Martin and Ada were living in Vines Cross, Horsham Road, Heathfield. Martin, aged 41 was an agricultural labourer working for Mr J Bourne. Ada was 38 years old and on home duties. They had three children:

• Mabel Dorothy Wickens Born 4 September 1913. Baptised 14 December 1913 at Rotherfield. In 1939 she was living with her parents and is described as "incapacitated". Mabel married Harold F Barrow in 1940. In 1945 they were living at Burns Valley, Nursery, Vines Cross. Harold died in 1970. Mabel Dorothy Barrow died in 1997 in Torbay, Devon.
  
• Charles John Wickens. Born 7 October 1914. Baptised 7 July 1916 in Horam. Charles married Louisa Alice Pulleyblank in 1938 in Hailsham. In 1939 they were living at 2, Bijon Cottages, Chichester. Charles was a farm labourer and Louisa was a housewife. Charles died on 10 January 2000 in Thatcham, Berks. Louisa died in 2015 in Chichester. 
• Arthur Ernest Wickens. Born 18 September 1915. Baptised 7 July 1916 in Horam. In 1939 "Ernest A" was living with his parents and working as a painter. "Ernest A" Wickens married Ruby Ilene Saunders in 1942 in Hailsham. In 1945 he was a private in HM Army (see below) In 1958 through to at least 1963 they were living at Wintonville, Vines Cross.

In 1901, John and Sophia's daughter Alice Maud Bourner was visiting Henry & Eliza Meakins, grocers at Vines Cross. In 1911, aged 25 she was a servant to Rosina Lucy Sutton living at Sevan Wood, Shoreham Rise. Alice married William John Vine on 2 August 1913 in Heathfield. William was a 29 year old bachelor, the son of George Vine, farmer. Alice was a 28 year old spinster, daughter of John Bourner, blacksmith.  

Other researchers suggest that William and Alice had six children, three daughters and three sons, but I don't believe that this is the case. In 1911 a William John Vine (born 1881), aged 30 is living at Palmers Row, Hailsham with his wife Alice, aged 28 (born 1883) and their three children, Bessie, Edith and Margaret. He is a marine store dealer and they had been married 9 years. This I believe is a different William John Vine, who married Alice Maud Burton on 2 August 1902 in Hailsham. Three sons born after 1911 confirm their mother's maiden name was Burton. 

William John Vine (born 1880) enlisted in the RAF on 11 November 1914. At the time he enlisted and his pension details name his wife as Alice Maud Vine, the pension details describe her as his widow.  I suspect that this is the William who married in 1902. In 1939 William J Vine, a farmer, born 24 September 1873 and Maud A (corrected to Alice Maud) Vine born 8 June 1885 were two of fifteen people listed at The White Horse Hotel, Battle!! I think this is probably the correct William and Alice? William John Vine of The Red Lion Hotel, Magnum Down died on 8 December 1946 and probate was granted to his widow Alice Maud Vine!! Alice Maud Vine (born 8 June 1885) died in 1975. 

John and Sophia's son William Peter Bourner may have enlisted in the army on 13 January 1905, aged 18 he was a saddler living at Hailsham. In 1911 he was a 23 year old blacksmith living with his parents at Vines Cross, Warbleton. In 1921 he was living with his parents at Horsham Road, Heathfield. He was 33 years old and like his father was a farmer. On 9 December 1925 he married Harriett Maggie Hobden. at St Richard's Church, Heathfield. William was a 27 year old farmer, Harriett was 29 years old, the daughter of Henry Miles Hobden, farmer. 

In 1939 William and "Maggie" were living at Monkhurst Farm, Hailsham with their daughter and William's mother Sophia (see above).

• Catherine M Bourner. Born 21 July 1927. Catherine married Henry William Connor in 1947. In 1952 electoral registers show Henry and Catherine living at "Bangalore", Maynards Green. Henry William Connor died in 2010.  Catherine died on 29 January 2019 in Horsham.      

William Peter Bourner of Holwood Cottage, Maynards Green died on 18 January 1962 at St Mary's Hospital, Eastbourne. Probate was granted to Harriett Maggie Bourner, widow and Noel Clarke, solicitor. Harriett remarried in 1963. Her second husband was William Nock. Harriett Maggie Nock of Timberdown, Heathfield died on 1 July 1987. 

In 1911 John and Sophia's son Walter Ernest Bourner was living with his uncle Urban Stevens and his wife Harriett at Green Street Farm, Old Town, Eastbourne, Aged 21 he was an apprentice to the motor industry. Private Walter Ernest Bourner of the Royal Sussex Regiment was killed in action on 19 March 1916 and was buried in Y Farm Military Cemetery, Bois-Grenier, Departement du Nord, Nord-Pas-de-Calais, France.

Finally John and Sophia's daughter Edith Caroline Bourner married Percival George Barrow on 4 September 1920 at Warbleton. Percival was a 37 year old market gardener, son of George Richard Barrow, labourer, deceased. Edith was 28 years old.

In 1921 Percival and Edith were living at Deanland, Vines Cross. Heathfield. Percival was aged 35 and a fruit grower working on his own account. Edith was 29 years old. She is described as "daughter in law". Also listed are another "daughter" and "son-in-law" and two "sons", who were fruit growers. . The person responsible for making the return was "Mrs Barrow" whom I'm guessing was Percival's mother. Percival and Edith had two children:

• Betty Maud Barrow. Born 11 April 1922. Betty married Henry Charles Haskell on 27 August 1946 in Hailsham.  Henry died in 1994 in Haywards Heath. Betty died on 11 December 2011 in Haywards Heath, 
  
• George Richard John Barrow. Born 24 March 1927. George Richard John Barrow of 7 Arundel Close, Hailsham died on 8 February 1974.
  

Percival George Barrow of Deanland Bungalow, Warbleton died on 19 May 1927. He was buried on 21 May 1927 at Warbleton. HIs obituary is s follows 

Administration as granted to Edith Caroline Barrow, widow and William Peter Bourner, farmer. Edith remarried on 13 December 1930 at St Mary's Church, Chadwell. Her second husband was Alfred Edward Offen. In 1939 they were living at Deanland, Leaf Cross, Hailsham. Both Edith's children were still living with them. Alfred Edward Offen died in 1977. Edith Caroline Offen died aged 93 on 14 January 1983.
