1778. William Westmore Pope was baptised Rottingdean to Thomas Pope & Ann Westmore on 15/3/1778 . Rottingdean is ~ 3 m E of Brighton
1798. William Wermer Pope married Charlotte Fowler 8/10/1798 in Rottingdean , by banns.
Children baptised to William & Charlotte in Rottingdean were: Thomas 1799, Charles Edwin & Charlotte, same date 1800, Ann 1804 Sarah Westmore Pope 4/7/1806 & Frances Hide 1809, though this last just to Charlotte.? Most of these just from contributors to FS , but seem genuine . Also on Mandy Willard's website
Cannot find William nor Charlotte in the 1841C and no deaths July 1837-1841. So feel they both died before July 1837 . No deaths on IGI. Nothing on FMP
But from http://www.mandywillard.co.uk/surnames/westmore/william_1713.htm
William may/must have died before 1818 as Charlotte Fowler Pope married John Philips by banns on 9 August 1818 in Rottingdean.
Going back another generation:
Ann Westmore married Thomas Pope Brighton St Nicholas 1766 .
Children baptised to Thomas & Ann were: Thomas 1775, & he died 1840 , William Westmore 1778, Ann 1780, Sarah 1782 & George 1794?? all in Rottingdean. Most of these just from contributors to FS , but seem genuine
Thomas Pope was baptised Rottingdean to Cornelius Pope & Magdelene Clare on 19/7/1741 .
No baptism for Ann Westmore 1735-1752 . An Ann Pope 1744-1823 was buried Rottingdean in 1823- this maybe her
Cornelius Pope married Magdelin Clare Rottingdean 5/4/1724
Children baptised to Cornelius & Magdalen were: Mary 1725, Elizabeth 1726, John 1729,Philip 1734, Rueben 1736, William 1739, Thomas 1741 & Sarah 1743, all in Rottingdean . Most of these just from contributors to FS , but seem genuine
. No baptism for this Cornelius cerca 1700- I suspected baptisms did not start till later, but contributors to FS-IGI do have precise dates for baptisms back to 1681 at least - IGI, FMP & Ancestry . A Cornelius Pope was buried Rottingdean 14/8/1758, & another was buried 1773!
Magdalen Clare was baptised 17/1/1701 Rottingdean to John Clare & Elizabeth. Magdaline Pope/Clare died 29 Sep 1771 at Rottingdean

Children baptised to John & Elizabeth Clare were: Elisabeth 1698, d.1700, Edward 1701, Magdalen 1701 & Elisabeth 1703
