    Married 7 May 1799  St. Margaret’s Church, Warnham, Sussex, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • No marriage for James and Elizabeth found in Kirdford or Slinfold (latter only looked at on the IGI). FamilySearch does have a marriage of a James Court to an Elizabeth Robinson in Warnham (c. 2-3miles from Slinfold) on 7 May 1799 - I guess it was this couple and the baptism of an Elizabeth Robinson in Slinfold in 1778 adds weight to this.
