Henry Fenner

   Ancestral File Number: 3 or 550.

  General Notes:

Sussex assizes ended 25 Jul 1795 "Henry Fenner , for stealing a watch, the property of Thomas Fisher of Mayfield, was sentenced to seven years transportation" - fits with no more children after 1794 ???

marriage of daughter Sophia to Samuel Sinnock with witnesses John Smith suggests that this Henry Fenner is the same as Henry son of Andrew which had not previously been proven.
