Cowden St Mary Magdalene is an Ancient Parish; although it is in the county of Kent it is a parish in the Diocese of Chichester Sussex . The parish boundary forms part of the county boundary with neighbouring Lingfield, Surrey and East Grinstead, Sussex Hartfield, Sussex Withyham, Sussex
This is a work in progress, much of it taken from The Weald site (http://theweald.org/area.asp?Pid=PK.Cowden&t=2&y=9&p=0)
with additions from Census data. There remains a question over the inclusion of William who married Mary Sweetnam since his death record in Australia gives his mother as Elizabeth Burford. This is now assumed (but not proven) to be mistaken; the informant was his son-in-law, Alfred Hinds. William and his wife and children emigrated to Sydney, Australia on the James Pattinson in 1838. It seems they were part of a group of Wesleyan families who emigrated together. His sister Elizabeth came on the Roxburgh Castle which arrived a little later and married a convict, Samuel Francis More research to be done. So far there are no currently known UK descendants.
