Maria married Obadiah Hall. Her father Peters children are legatees in the will of John Avis, 1728 to 1806, and it was through that that I found Peters existence. I will check for further details at the Lewes Records Office. I believe that he married Fanny, and that she was buried 29/3/1793 in Withyham, and that they had the following children, who in the will are referred to as the children of Peter Avis deceased, late son of John Avis. Maria, baptised in Withyham 15/9/1788 (received 300 pounds in her grandfather John Avis will of 1806). Peter, baptised in Withyham 6/5/1790 (received 300 pounds in his grandfather John Avis will of 1806). William, baptised in Horsted Keynes 23/8/1794 (received 300 pounds in his grandfather John Avis will of 1806). Peter Avis is believed to have remarried to Elizabeth Weller in Withyham 4/2/1796. His 1803 will leaves everything to her. Maria and her husband are legatees in her aunt Elizabeth Avis will(1747 to 1832). The polling records for 1837 and 1842 show Marias husband Obadiah Hall listed as being at Hendall.
