Hi,
My family lived in Rye for some time marrying into various families within Rye. I would be interested in any information anyone has on the kennetts, Southerdens, Coopers, Dawes Adamsons and Saunders. The Procter family lived in WestStreet, Mermaid Street and Watchbell Street. I know this is a blanket approach and I can give more details concerning dates etc if required.
Many thanks
Dave Procter
Dave,
Perhaps a long shot but my surname is Dawes and have heard a rumour that we have links to Rye and Winchelsea. Most of the research I have done relating to the Dawes name is around Clerkenwell in London. Maybe this might be a missing link.

Hello Michael
It is possible, of course we should write and exchange any information we oth have. I do know my Great Grand mother’s name was Katherine Dawes Saunders Adamson Procter. Her three middle names of course are from families she was related to. The Dawes were very prominent in Rye mainly solicitors, also they were a large family so it is possibe that one branch moved to London.
