Hearnden Family


Can anyone help with information on my family tree please?

Issac Hearnden was born in Winchelsea in 1772. He married Elizabeth Brett in 1802 and was a grocer in Winchelsea.
His son, George was the Postmaster at Church Street, Winchelsea and his daughter Lavinia was the Postmistress after him.

I wonder is there any trace of the family left in the town?
