"The origins of the Honeysett families who settled in New South Wales in the 19th century can be traced to the iron workers of Sussex, England in the 16th century. The surname of Honeysett is believed to be of Walloon Origin (a dialect of northeast France). It is also believed to derive from the name Johannes (John in English) Hanosse, a familiar form of Johannes, is fund in the French Iron Forge records from the latter part of the 14th Century. Hanosse was both a surname and a forename. In the 15th century, we find the surname Hanozer, which is almost certainly a diminutive form of Hanosse. At the beginning of the 16th century, the name crossed the English Channel and began to appear in early English records. The French name would undoubtably pose problems for English Scribes and this must surely account in part for the numerous variations found in the earlier English records. Many very early spellings are remarkably close to the French Hanozet. Major variations shown in the early English records were Henesye and Honison.
The name of HONEYSETT and its' other forms were unknown in England before the 16th century. Several of the early Honeysetts are known to have been iron workers from France who settled in Sussex, England. Prior to this time, the name was found near Namur in Northern France (now Beligum). Again the name was associated with the Iron Trade. The first recorded Honeysetts in England were two Frenchmen, Jacques and Adrian Hanyset who appeared in Denization Rolls of 1541. Both had been in the region for a number of years at that time. In 1543, Adrian was accused of murder, fled the scene and was never brought to trial. During the 1550's James Honesys (also recorded as Jacques Hanysue or Onysed) was an iron finer in the Horsham/Nuthurst area of Sussex. He died in 1560 and left the earliest known example of a Honeysett will. In 1569 Peter Honesit married Clemens Tole in Fletching, Sussex. They had a number of children who were baptized in Mountfield and later Westfield. Peter and his son Clement were hammermen in the iron industry of Sussex Weald. By the middle of the 17th century the iron industry was in decline and descendants of the family took up other occupations such as farming. One of two moved further afield, initially into Kent and London in search of work. Many of the early Honeysetts left wills which help to link families, as well as providing a glimpse of their lifestyle. Richard Honeysett who died in Herstmonceaus, Sussex in 1732 did not leave a will but the inventory of his goods and chattells survives with other information such as records of leases which provide a fascinating insight into the life of this early 18th century yeoman farmer and his family."
Will (original held at West Sussex Record Office, Chichester. Ref: STC 1/10, f5 1) as follows:-
