Notes
[C A S 76yr.] [Tue 09 Feb 1836, Kentish Gazette, Kent, Feb 4, at Glynde, Sussex, by the Rev. Francis Barrow, Thomas White Scutt, esq. of Lewes, a Magistrate and Deputy Lieutenant of the county, to Catherine Ann, eldest daughter of John Ellman, esq. of Glynde. Wife Catherine Scutt and the three children left him long before he died. For at least seven years, Mrs. Catherine Scutt had lived with her brother at Berwick before leaving to make a home for herself. (A book written by Edward Boys Ellman, brother-in-law of Thomas White Scutt and published by Skeffington & Son in 1912, six years after Ellman's death).] [The 1851 Census confirms that Catherine was at Berwick – occupation housekeeper – along with her two daughters. Thomas Scutt would have been at a boarding school. So for at least seven years Catherine had lived with her brother before leaving to ‘make a home for herself'.]
