Hi everyone,
I am struggling a bit. I have a UK 1851 census listing for a relo who claims they were born in Grafham Sussex. Now I have done a search for Grafham and found one in Cambridgeshire and the atlas I have does not list it at all....so can someone tell me where Grafham really is and if it is not in fact in Sussex, is there somewhere that might sound like Grafham that is in Sussex- was it recorded wrong in the census?
please enlighten me!
Jo

There is a GRAFFHAM in Sussex.

It is North of Chichester.

I don't live in the area so I know nothing more about it I'm afraid.
