Hi Stuart
The Chatfield connection is on my wife's side, the Australian connection is from a Alfred William Chatfield who was part of Col. Light's survey party in South Australia. The connection to your Chatfield starts at Thomas Chatfield and Jane Bridger.

Heavens Stuart, that is so comprehensive. How many years has it taken you to amass all that! I must say that I am impressed and very grateful that you are prepared to share it all so readily with me. Thank you so much. Are you descended from Levi Chatfield or an earlier branch. I am wondering how he ended up with a name like Levi.
Thank you kindly and all the very best with your travels into genealogy.
Kindest regards
Stuart McDonald

Anyone out there descended from Levi Chatfield. He was born circa 1814 (baptised 29th November 1814 at Framfield), son of Thomas and Frances Chatfield. He married Harriet Tickner, circa 1834(date not ascertained) and had at least two children before migrating to South Australia. The two children born in Sussex were Eli and Ruth Ann, with a possible third, Ada Augusta.
Harriet Tickner was the daughter of George Tickner, and possibly his wife ?Mary.
Thanks
Stuart
