William Harman my great-great grandfather was born on Wednesday 18th November in the year 1818. The son of James and Mariah Harman my great-great-great grandparents and the grandson of Thomas and Hannah Harman my great-great-great-great grandparents. William like his father James, was baptised in the parish church of Rotherfield, St. Denys on 3rd January 1819. At the age of 10 years his grandfather Thomas died at the age of 72 years. His grandfather, like his father James, was a stonemason and bricklayer plus builder and craftsman of repute. This enabled them to live in comparative comfort. … My great-great grandfather William was now aged twenty-three and in the following year he married Charlotte Moon at St. Denys, Rotherfield on Christmas day Monday 25th December 1843, probably one of the few days in a year for a days holiday. … Charlotte was now aged 74 and was in poor health at the beginning of this year. On Tuesday 29th July 1890 Charlotte died and was buried at All Saints church at Crowborough. William had a memorial stone made probably by Herbert his son, as he was a monumental maker. The monument is on the left hand side as you enter the churchyard. … Towards the end of his life he left Stone Cross and lived with his with daughter Harriet Walters wife of John Walters at Alderbrook farm, Crowborough. It is here that William died aged 81 on Saturday 7th July 1900. …
