4.   Elizabeth HEMSLEY (1)
Bap 5 Mar 1705/06 at Framfield, Sussex, dau of Hen. & Sarah Hemslee (ref FamilySearch Sussex parish registers image).
Looking at the images for baptism, the one stating the bap at 5 Mar 1705/06 seems clearest and the others all seem either in error or a guess.
Died before 1713; the Elizabeth who was buried then was an "Infant".

Marriage 11 Oct 1743 at Burwash, Sussex of John Hemsley to Mary RADFORD; John was of Mayfield, Mary of Ticehurst (ref FamilySearch Sussex parish registers image).

Bap of Elizabeth Hemsely [sic] 26 Dec 1713 at Framfield, Sussex, dau of Henry & Sarah (ref Ancestry East Sussex CofE Indexes).
This record makes reference to the burial, with a question mark.
Burial of Elizabeth Hemsely 26 Dec 1713 at Framfield, Sussex, dau of Henry & Sarah Hemsely, "Infant" (ref Ancestry East Sussex burials).
The closeness of her baptism to the following child in the next month is a slight puzzle.

7.   Mary HEMSLEY (2)
Bap of Mary Hemsly [sic] 1 Apr 1716 at Keymer, Sussex, dau of John & Sarah (ref Ancestry West Sussex CofE Baptisms image).

It is suggested in FS that this Mary married John Stevens in 1735 at Little Horsted, however there are two other possible Marys to consider whose homes were closer to Maresfield, where the Mary in the marriage record came from; these are Mary 1701 from Framfield, and Mary 1703 from Isfield, both above.
