1851: Arlington Parish, enumerated 30 Mar 1851, p. 5, ?obbs House, per copy on file:

Dianah, married, age 75, born Westhauer, Sussex.
Jane, daughter, unmarried, 35, Union Parish Pay Infirm, born in Arlington, Sussex.
CHRISTENING:
1. Source of christening and burial information from extracts of the Registers of Arlington Parish Church, Sussex, England from 1700 onwards by correspondence (copy on file) of 30 Nov 1953 from George Mitchell of Berwick Rectory, Nr. Polegate, Sussex. Cover letter reads: "In reply to your request for information about the Osborne family, I have searched the Registers from 1700 onwards, and find the entries given on the enclosed sheet. It is unfortunate that the marriage entries are so few, but it must be remembered that marriages usually take place in the woman's parish, and there is no means of finding out where this might be apart from inspecting the registers of the district. I have no record at all under the name of Daw; Con Osborne is married to Sarah Coleman in his 24th year, but if this is the Sarah who died in 1806, he may have married again between 1806 and 1813, though for the reason given the marriage would not be in the Arlington Registers. I have an older Register going back to 1609, but I have not searched this; it is in latin, and would take some time to go through... There is no one of the name of Osborne in the parish now, and my oldest inhabitants cannot remember any family of this name. The parish, which still covers about 24 square miles, was twice as large until 1845, when a 'daughter' parish was carved out of it, and it may be that there are entries after this year in the records of that Parish... If you are interested in 'your old Church,' I may say that it is an unusually fine one, and dates back before the landing of the Conqueror..." He also notes: "It is more than likely that 'Osborne' and 'Osborn' are the same family, and 'Edward' and 'Edmond' may be the same person."
Baptisms:
1816 Jul 7, Jane, dau. of Cornelius and Dinah Osborn.
Burials:
1862 Feb 3, Jane Osborn aged 47 yrs.
MARRIAGE:
1. Most likely unmarried because there are no marriage records in Arlington Parish and it appears she is the individual listed in the burial below with her maiden name of Osborn.
BURIAL:
1. Most likely the Jane cited above 3 Feb 1862, age 47, in the Arlington Parish Registers as cited above. Age though is off a year or so.
ACTION:
1. Look up in 1861 British census for Arlington to verify she is still unmarried and make case for her being the burial of 1862 as cited above.
