She was buried at Fletching on the 11th June
1785.
They had children:-
Where now?
Two possible baptisms from the East Sussex baptism
index at East Sussex Record Office are:-
24th January 1725, Elizabeth
daughter of John and Elizabeth FAULCONER (LANGRIDGE) at Fletching,
and
24th November 1733 Elizabeth daughter
of Henry and Mary FAULCONER at East Grinstead.
The East Grinstead baptism looks the most
believable especially as an Elizabeth FALKNER was removed
from Fletching to West Hoathly in 1761.
