Burwash in East Sussex Village Guide

Hugonis Tomsett


Born c 1528 Burwash.

I’m engaged in some family research and will be interested to hear from anyone able to shed light on the Tomsett family (various spellings: Tomset, Thompsett, Thomsett etc) who were born and resided in Burwash during the early 1500s. Any contributions or advice will be gratefully received. JN

    Hi, we have just seen your message (11 years after you wrote yours … !) Our family name is Tompsett and we have just started researching our family tree. I stumbled across this page yesterday and thought I would get in touch. Your information is fascinating and goes far further back than we have been able to. We can’t offer anything from the early 1500s, but can supply some very early photos of Tompsett family members, if you would be interested.
    All the best, Margaret Tompsett
