Ancestors of Mandy Willard

Richard TULLETT (1827-1913)

and Caroline HILLS (1830-1904)

Richard Tullett and Caroline Hills married in the third quarter of 1851 in the Horsham registration district of Sussex.  (They were not my direct ancestors.)

Richard Tulitt was baptised on 21 October 1827 in West Grinstead, Sussex.  He was the son of Peter Tulett (1792-?) and Elizabeth Worsfield (c1795-?).  He died aged 86 years and his death was registered in the fourth quarter of 1913 in the Horsham registration district.  When the 1841 census was recorded he was 14 years old and living with his parents and elder sister, Caroline, at Monks Gate Common, Nuthurst.  His father was then a sawyer.  At the time of the 1851 census he was an unmarried 23 year old agricultural labourer living with his parents at Monks Common.  (Another Richard Tullett, born in 1826 in West Grinstead, married Caroline Wadey in 1847.) 

Caroline Hills was born in Nuthurst, Sussex and baptised on 4 April 1830 in Horsham, Sussex.  She was the daughter of Richard Hills (c1800-?) and Hester Tyler (1810-?).  She died aged 74 years and her death was registered in the third quarter of 1904 in the Horsham registration district.  When the 1851 census was recorded she was an unmarried 21 year living with her parents at Hammer in Lower Beeding, Sussex.  Her father was then a labourer.  Caroline's maternal grandparents were John Tyler and Esther Dinnage.

The couple and their 3 children were living at Monks Common, Nuthurst in 1861 and Richard was a sawyer.  In 1871 Richard and Caroline and 6 sons were still living in Nuthurst and he was still a sawyer.  In 1881 the couple and 5 children were living at Monks Common.  The 1891 census records that Richard and Caroline together with their youngest 2 sons were living at what looks like 3 Thrift Cottage in Nuthurst.  In 1901 the couple were living alone at 3 Thrift Cottage and Richard was then a 73 year old wood sawyer.

   Elizabeth was born about 1860 in Plaxtol, Kent.

   When the 1901 census was recorded the couple were living at the Rose and Crown, Sheet Hill in Wrotham, Kent and Mark was a beer retailer and fruit grocer.  Also with them on census were Mark's 2 sons, Elizabeth's son and 48 year old lodger, Adam Newman.
