James BOTTING (c1715-1792)

and Sarah BOTTEN (c1720-1800)

James Botting and Sarah Botten married on 15 May 1740 in Nuthurst, Sussex.

James Botting's date and place of birth/baptism are unknown, to me.  Might he have been baptised on 7 July 1707 in Shipley, Sussex the son of John Botting?  Or on 21 October 1716 in Slaugham, Sussex the son of Nicholas Botting, or in West Grinstead, Sussex in 1716 the son of James Botting and Sarah.  James Botting, an old man was buried on 18 November 1792 in Nuthurst.  Nicholas also had a son named Antill Botting.

Sarah Botten's date and place of birth/baptism are unknown, to me.  Might she have been baptised on 12 September 1710 in Horsham, Sussex the daughter of Francis Botting  and Mary, or on 1 May 1712 again in Horsham the daughter of Henry Botting and Ann Manfield, or 1714 in Itchingfield the daughter of Thomas Botting and Sarah, or 2 April 1719 in Cowfold the daughter of James Botten and Elizabeth, or 4 February 1722 in Shipley the daughter of Richard Botting and Jean.  She may have been buried on 6 June 1800 in Nuthurst, but unfortunately the burial register gives no further details.
