| Comments: | I really enjoyed reading about these Palmer's.I am heavily into our family tree and it would seem that my family origins are getting nearer and nearer to what you have written here.Were mainly based in Gravesend now,but so far i have us based back to Strood/Rochester within the 16th century.As any one knows making a link beyond this becomes very hard so if theres any one out there that can help i would be really interested in hearing from you. |

He always used to say "Nobody comes from Angmering" as if that was a popular local saying. I guess this guy would be about 45 now. Would anyone know of the Angmering Thompsons? |

| Comments: | Do any of the villagers of Angmering village know of a cottage called YSIAD ? It was in a group of cottages , on a hill to the north of the village. Ysiad was Daisy spelt backwards.
As a child we use to holiday there before the war. But then the war came, and we use to watch the dog fights over the Downs. Sadly I only ever went back once with my children. Even more sad was the wonderful open fields that horses use to be kept in, were now gone and only houses could be seen. Would like to know more information. |

Just popping in to get my latest Angmering 'fix' I love to follow the progress of the village and find out what's happening. My parents, Peter and Vera Penn, send their regards to anyone that may remember them from long ago. They are now in their eighties, and plodding along slowly. Thanks for such a fine, informative site. It keeps those of us who will probably never get the opportunity to return to Angmering, a way of keeping in touch with the lovely village (where I was born.) Bye for now, Regards, Marilyn Work (nee Penn) Hoping this gets 'posted'.....haven't been successful in getting message posted lately. Please note new email address. |

As I am working on the genealogy of my family, I was thrilled to find so much interesting information about the Penfolds because Charles Somerset Penfold was my g-g-g-grandfather, and a direct descendant of the original Richard Penfold himself. Your hard work and research on everything to do with Angmering is sincerely appreciated, and has made this an enjoyable site for the rest of us to navigate. I hope to visit Angmering in the not-too-distant future! |

Came upon it during family history research - of course! - most of my mothers family came from the Worthing area, including West Tarring, Heene, etc, with some links to Angmering. Names included Ball, Carter, Grevatt, Bone, Berry, etc.
Although I no longer live in Sussex, I still have fond childhood memories of the time when we lived, during the war, near Felpham when my grandfather was stationed with the RAF at Ford. All best wishes. |

| Comments: | Having looked at the wonderful collection of old village photographs I have to admit being directly related to the Terry family who lived in the house next to the Lamb. The family is described as 'enormous, there having been 17 children!' Actually there were 18 altogether, my father Harry, who was known in the village as 'Brusher' was the 18th and he died at the age of 92 a few years ago. What came as a great surprise to me were the two photographs of the crenelated house next to the Lamb where my Grandfather James and his wife Edith raised their family. I had not seen either photograph before and I would dearly like to obtain copies of them for my family records. Can anyone tell me how I can get hold of them? The Terrys have often been described as eccentric characters. James was the Village butcher and Edith, who always wore a man's hat ran a local newspaper business of sorts. I am always anxious to learn more about this rather strange family so if anyone can tell me more I would be most interested |

Angmering remains just as I remember it...absolutely beautiful. My parents (Penn) were married in St Margarets..and I remember my paternal grandmother lived in Water Lane. Many memories of a lovely village that I hope, one day, to see again. Keep up the good work. Will visit here again...now I've found you. |

Card is to Twinning partners in Ouistreham so a good way of introducing Angmering to a couple who have not ever been to the UK but will be here with us for the 2006 exchange & am glad to see the parish Council will support us in this the 30th year of Angmering/Ouistreham Twinning. |

| Comments: | The views of local residents would be better represented if we adopted the French system of local mayors with wide ranging powers who can be held to account at election time. Those who have experienced the system can testify as to its effectiveness. Couple that with sweeping away the clogging layers of bureacracy that infect the current system. |

| Comments: | NEWS FROM A-BROAD!!
Stoupa in a stupor since the Bishop of Angmering - Cardinal Rogers-Davis said roger & out, and returned to Blighty, last weekend. Residents in this now quiet again seaside village have noticed a significant fall in the Pun count. R-D {tipped to be next Pope, and first Englishman since Nickelarse Brokespears} left behind a wave of unexploded puns which were thankfully cleared by the Greek Ministry of Wit & Repartit, using their new solar powered anti-neilotrope - returned the atmosphere to normal boring factor five jokes, in only 3 days. "Bit of an aunty-climax really!" said our wibbly-wobbly correspondent, METAXA MAN, as he snored his way through another bottle of 3 star. It is rumoured that if elected, The Cardinal will take the name Pope Quasi-Modo I, and reduce the use of the bells in Vatican City, and only have his food delivered to him from the famous Parisienne caterer "Lunchpack Of Notre Dame" |

| Comments: | Talk about making me feel homesick! I grew up in Brighton/Hove & remember many bike rides with friends along the coast - yes, even as far as your lovely village - boy, we must have been fit. Anyway, it's over 40 years since I left England, but it's wonderful to see proof that there are at least some areas which, even with the inevitable changes, still retain those things I remember. Well done to all concerned. |

| Comments: | Wonderful website about an obviously beautiful village.
Am particularly interested in the family history information - and would love to express my great appreciation to all the hard work which I know would have gone into it. My particular interest is in my ancestors the Drewetts and Knowles who show up in the late 1600 and 1700's. Although I have viewed the parish registers through this site I have gathered so much more information which I would have been unaware was available without many more 'fishing expeditions' in various records. Thanks again and we hope to visit the village later this year when we visit the UK. |

It was a nice time in a nice village,but I have not been there since.But next year I will go to visit.If somebody knows the family- please let me know if they still live there. They had three sons I was looking after. In the same steet I got to know an italian woman. She lived on the same side as the postoffice but a bit further down.Does somebody know if she is still livivng there - her name was Vera.I will be very happy if somebody can tell me if somebody still are living there |

| Comments: | I am interested in William Henry Gill (1839-1924) who lived at "The White House" in the village, and where his daughter Florence was still living in 1935. WHG was a folk song collector, both in the Isle of Man where his parents came from, and in Sussex. His papers are missing and I am wondering if anyone knows anything of what happened to the Gill family or remembers anything about them. I still hope his papers can be found and we can see not just what he collected in the Isle of Man but also around the village.

Your experience with the Parish Council mirrors that of the Findon Website experience. My personal view is that Parish Councils are an anachronism and should be abolished in favour of Village Mayors. But I guess it's a Pipe Dream. |
