Richard MARKWICK (1761-?)

and Mary TUTT (1758-1815)

and Elizabeth CRIPPS (1769-?)

Richard Markwick and Mary Tutt married by licence on 23 November 1784 in Chailey, Sussex.  He was then a bachelor and carpenter of Uckfield aged 23 and upwards.  She was a spinster of Chailey aged 22 and upwards.  Their marriage licence was dated 20 November 1784 and issued in the Archdeaconry of Lewes.  (They were not my direct ancestors.  Mary was the niece of my 6x Great Grandmother, Ann Tutt.)  As a widower, Richard married Elizabeth Heaver, widow by licence on 22 May 1826 in Maresfield, Sussex.  He was then of Uckfield and she of Maresfield.  As Elizabeth Cripps she had previously married Benjamin Heaver by licence on 5 April 1789 in Isfield, Sussex.  Benjamin was then a widower aged 30 years and upwards and a miller of Isfield.  Elizabeth was a spinster aged 20 years and upwards and married with the consent of John Cripps.

Richard Markwick was baptised on 10 May 1761 in Uckfield, Sussex.  He was the son of John Markwick and Mary Slater.  The death of a Richard Markwick was registered in the third quarter of 1843 and another in the first quarter of 1846, both in the Uckfield registration district.  (I have found a web site that says he died in 1864 - should that have been 1846?)

Mary Tutt was baptised on 6 October 1758 in Chailey.  She was the daughter of Stephen Tutt (1728-1803) and Elizabeth Apps (1731-1809).  She died in 1815.

Elizabeth Cripps was baptised on 30 August 1769 in Isfield.  She was the daughter of John Cripps and Sarah Colegate.

When the 1841 census was recorded, 80 year old Richard was a builder living in the High Street, Uckfield, along with 70 year old Elizabeth Markwick, 10 year old male Markwick (looks like Lambon) and 25 year old Caroline Heaver.
