To request a look-up, please click on the name by the reference. Include the
words SUSSEX LOOK-UP in the subject line of your
mail, and be very specific about the book or reference material. Many volunteers
offer look-ups in a number of different books, across many counties, so the more
specific you are, the more likely your request is likely to succeed! Remember
that abuses of the kindness of these volunteers will probably cause them to
withdraw their names, so please don't ask for all references to a common name,
or for time-consuming research. Volunteers may or may not be willing to obtain
copies of the relevant pages. If they are, expect to reimburse expenses.
Many Family History Societies produce publications related to their county. You may want to consider purchasing your own copy of relevant resources to aid your research. Links to Sussex Family History Society publications can be found at: www.sfhg.org.uk/pubs.html
