Notes for James
Milham:
From "Sussex Born, Aussie
Bred" (by Milham Family Reunion Committee )
James
MilhamThe only fact known about James is that he was a timber
merchant. It could be
said that he
wasprosperous. Sussex, at that time, was covered by forests
which provided timber
for ship
building.But today James would have had to turn to farming, asthe
forests are all gone.
The hills of
theSouth Downs in Sussex, which had these forests, are now
mostly open pasture
land. On 15 January, 1787 at the
Parish Church of Ewhurst, James married Esther Sargent, the
daughter
of
Thomas Sargent and Sarah Oliver.
Esther
Sargent.
Esther was baptised on 17
April, 1765 in the Parish of Ticehurst, Sussex. She was also know
as
Hester, which is shown on
the marriage papers.Many years later, a great grandson of James and
Esther, John Milham, wrote
a letter to the Rector of Lewes, asking for help in connection with
the Milham and Thomas
estates, which he was told were "in chancery". In the letter, John
mentioned all the eleven
children of James and Esther by name, with their birth
dates. They were
Hannah, Sarah, John,
Thomas, Judith, Francis, Elizabeth, Mary, James, Esther and
William.
Nothing else has been found
about James and Esther except their deaths. James died on 12th
April, 1831, aged 69 years.
Esther, or Hester, died on 16th August, 1838, aged 74 years. Both
died and are buried at Ewhurst,
Sussex, England.
