Note that there was another family Richard and Ann(e) Sayer of Bramblehurst which is NE of the centre and he was also Felicity's sixth great grandfather. All the children listed above had either mother Elizabeth or or were of Gravat. An Elizabeth Sayer wife of Richard Sayer was buried on 1 April 1767 - this implies her husband was still alive otherwise I would expect widow. However I cannot locate a later burial for Richard.

There are one hundred and twenty entries in Ancestry Family Trees for Richard Sayer, but this includes both families.

There is a Gravett Copse in Ewhurst NE of the centre and west of Three Mile Road and a Gravatt family living in the area.
